  1. @BellaStander You're both, dahling.
  2. @patrickboegel Thanks--that's very kind!
  3. @JaneFriedman My pleasure, Jane (excellent name, BTW). I really enjoyed what you had to say.
  4. NA: @ the ball, Catherine escapes Thorpe, & Henry asks her to dance. "It did not appear to her that life could supply any greater felicity."
  5. NA: "Woman is fine for her own satisfaction alone. No man will admire her the more, no woman will like her the better for it."
  6. NA: A waste of a thought, "for man only can be aware of the insensibility of man towards a new gown."
  7. NA: "…and on Catherine's, without the smallest consciousness of having explained them." If only she had time to buy a new gown for the ball.
  8. Northanger Abbey: Catherine & Eleanor "parted -- on Miss Tilney's side with some knowledge of her new acquaintance's feelings… "
  9. Fave takeaway from Marketing in the Digital World webinar: be entertaining or point to useful info. Believe that was @janefriedman. Thx #dbw
  10. Thanks for a lively & interesting webinar @janefriedman @dianavilibert @patrickboegel @danblank @glecharles #dbw #dbw
  11. @booksquare Really happy to hear that, Kassia. NA is one of my faves, too. I appreciate it more every time I read it.
  12. NA: Does Henry ever come to the Pump Room, asks Catherine, & will they be at the ball tomorrow? Eleanor's answer makes Catherine very happy.
  13. NA: Catherine: "Do you think her pretty?" Eleanor: "Not very." Are there any sweeter words than this?
  14. NA: Catherine: "Was not the young lady he danced with on Monday a Miss Smith?... I dare say she was very glad to dance."
  15. NA: "Henry!" she replied with a smile. "Yes, he does dance very well."
  16. NA: "'How well your brother dances!' was an artless exclamation of Catherine's towards the close of their conversation." Eleanor is amused.
  17. Northanger Abbey: The next day is more promising. Catherine sees Eleanor Tilney in the Pump Room and makes an effort to be friends.
  18. NA: And when Catherine hears she missed seeing Henry Tilney that day, it is "clear to her "that John Thorpe himself was quite disagreeable."
  19. NA: Thus despite Thorpe's being Isabella's bro & James's bud, Catherine's not sure that he is "altogether completely agreeable."
  20. NA: Catherine has never before met w/any people who were "in the habit…of telling lies to increase their importance." Or bragging endlessly.
