I saw a bit of Ann, but mostly Gemma. Good quote. I haven't read Sweet Far Thing yet. It reminds me of the passage about "porcelain dolls" or "We are their vessels" in the first one.

One of the things about the AGTB series is that it has the power of retrospection of seeing the repression of the Victorian era, and when you read a book from that period it wouldn't be the same. I don't think people are ever fully aware of their repression until after years.

Yay, I love Gemma :)
Read TSFT, it's my favorite.
Yes, you are so right about the knowledge of the repression. That's why I love those books, they're not ignorant.

you seem like a Felicity.

I see Felicity the most, though there's also some Pippa. :)

Cool! It's funny, most of you guys are saying Felicity. I've never really thought of myself as her. But looking back at the entry, I see. It's cool, I love Fee :)

From this, definitely Fee. You're determined, strong-willed (even though Felicity occasionally slips with that), and free-spirited. Also Felicity is intelligent, excels at most things she sets out to do, and she is also undoubtedly proud.

You're also blonde, but that really doesn't have much to do with this little activity, from what I've gathered.

Aww, thanks so much, girlie :)
