It's interesting how time can change your opinion of a book. When I first read this I didn't like it. I found it too anti religious. I'm not Catholic but I don't really like religion criticized. Then I read the first book of this trilogy Frost in May and now I know the character's dilemma more. Not only that the criticizing of religion wasn't as much as I remembered. The book is about a girl entering adulthood. She becomes a governess but then a tragedy happens. Uncertain about what to do next she accepts a proposal from a man she doesn't love. I like reading Virago books and learning about all of these forgotten female writers of the past. It's pretty neat.
