people assume I'm named for Austen but mum swears it was this one, which explains a LOT about my childhood. the red room!! and St John Rivers is a worse man than Rochester and nobody ever agrees with me

The attic! Everyone remembers the attic and forgets that most of this is a freezing school and an enormous amount of walking. Both halves are great, actually. Rochester is a red flag on a horse and I'd still have got in the carriage.8 out of 10@bleakhouse_bex
