I really enjoyed this, and it's just kind of surprising that it's not more well-known or loved as a classic. The pacing is slow, and if that's a problem for you, I suggest tandem reading with an audiobook to keep the story going!

Great story, felt cheated by the ending a bit...did they need an HEA in 1903?
