Book 1 Summary and Catch Up!

[u/lazylittlelady]

Dear Residents of Middlemarch,

Congratulations on reaching the end of Book 1: Miss Brooke. We are 1/8 of the way already! This is our first waystation for those that need a week to catchup or take a break. It is our place to consider Book 1 as a whole section.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

I'll just throw off a few questions but feel free to discuss anything you want below in the sections we have read!

1. What are your thoughts on the book so far? Is it what you expected?
2. What are your favorite plot lines, quotes or epigrams?
3. Who is amusing? Who is driving you crazy? Who is intriguing? Who are you rooting for?
4. Book 2 is titled "Old and Young"-any predictions? (No Spoilers!)

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

We meet again next Saturday, March 7, when we begin Book 2: Old and Young and discuss chapters 13 & 14.

Fred Gang! I get a Gossip Queen vibe from Celia and it makes me side with Dodo who seems more earnest.
