"I was nervous at first but it worked like a dream. I kept my part of the bargain: I stayed out of his way and was very polite to him when I was in his company. Mum asked me, did I like him and I opened my eyes very wide, which is a good thing to do if you're telling something not exactly true, and I said I thought Kent was just find and Mum said I was a good son, a very good son indeed, and her eyes got watery so I took myself off."
From Maeve Binchy's Whitethorn Woods

I just finished reading that book...loved it. The first of Binchy's that I've read.

From Sophie Kinsella's "The Undomestic Goddess" - a very delicious book I couldn't put down... hehe
PS I just watched two movies based on Maeve Binchy books... Tara Road and Circle of Friends... Both VERY good! I'm a HUGE long term Maeve Binchy fan...

How far are we on our road now, I wonder? I let down the window and looked out: Millcote was behind us; judging by the number of its lights, it seemed a place of considerable magnitude, much larger than Lowton. We were now, as far as I could see, on a sort of common; but there were houses scattered all over the district; I felt we were in a different region to Lowood, more populous, less picturesque; more stirring, less romantic.
Good heavens does Charlotte Bronte master the run on sentence! This was from Jane Eyre.
