🌿Castle Rackrent by Maria Edgeworth
.
I finished reading this today. Whilst it wasn’t long, I didn’t particularly enjoy the plot, so this is why I kept putting this book down. However, it has been insightful in terms of practices, customs and traditions of Irish Squires in the eighteenth century. What particularly interested me was the character of “honest” Thady. I was left with questions regarding his contribution to the downfall of the Rackrent family - collaboration or collusion? I’ll let you decide.
Rating:🌟3 #Rememberytreereviews

I’ll return to the second novel, The Absentee in due course - I’m in the mood for something different!
