I have meant to read this for years - well, actually, decades. Maybe I should put it on the TBR list for this year.

Is it just me or has she lost the plot a bit? We haven't seen Jane in ages. It's honestly kind of annoying me.
I think she's moved past Jane and is exploring the other people in the social circle. I guess just writing about Jane got to be too tedious.

I love both movie versions but Leslie Howard is definitely my favorite.

I've seen both now. Still like Anthony Andrews most. :)
