Yes, someone did. I required some advice from you ladies. I really do need it.

well, Caro's advice was good advice.
But I don't think Goodreads was designed to get advice on personal life matters- that's something you should get from your family and close friends. I don't know- maybe there are other groups that do this and talk about all sorts of things, but I'm trying to keep our group for discussing non-personal things (like the title items), specifically books. If there is someone on here you particularly trust, you could always message them about it, or even put it on your wall, but that's not what I have in mind for my group.
I'm sorry if this offends you- I'm sorry for your situation and I hope you find the advice you need. :)

Anna (SylviaGrant) | 232 comments It's all right, Alice..I suppose my Drew problem will take care of itself..I suppose that I shouldn't ask for advice for such a personal issue...I suppose that I shall just forget about it..only time will tell.

thanks for understanding. :)

and I think you should get advice, but advice on these types of matters is better gotten from someone you know personally. ;)

no problem, Caro! we've never really had it happen so I've never had to explain it. ;) besides- you gave good advice.
there you go Anna- you can come to CGC if you still want to ask your online friends for this advice. :)

its addicting...i think its just best to watch it in one sitting and "be done with it"- or it will be running through your mind every waking moment! :D

Totally agree Alice! I had to watch it in one!!

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments four hours???? im on episode 1 and im confused...two minutes in who is the guy talking to Margaret at the wedding? whose wedding is it?


message 717: by [deleted user] (new)

Remember him. He keeps coming up. Stick with it, they do rush the beginning in the series it will make more sense soon I promise :)


message 719: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments okay got it.


message 720: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments HES PROPOSING TO HER?!


message 721: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments GAHHH


message 722: by Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :) (new)

Sophie | 2550 comments Mod
Well sort of proposing.... in the book he never actually mentions marriage in this. But, it is the equivalent of a proposal (you may notice a few similarities by now and in the 'proposal' in particular to pride and prejudice)

Enjoying it?


message 723: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments yup!! not too far in paused for dinner


message 724: by Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :) (new)

Sophie | 2550 comments Mod
You're half way pretty much if at the 'proposal' scene as that at the end of episode 2 :)

Enjoy second half :)


message 725: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments what??? im on episode 1 and 8 min in


message 726: by Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :) (new)

Sophie | 2550 comments Mod
Ohhhhhhh. Right right. Yeah he proposes. Henry Lennox is not a favourite character of mine... Remember him. He keeps popping up later on ;)

I totally agree...I had to stretch it out over a few days, and that was torture!! ;P Next time I watch it I'm going to plan it so I don't have to stop it in between... :D

"You don't need Henry to explain" - right on, Thornton!

message 730: by [deleted user] (new)

message 731: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments uhhh so confused. henry seemed nice.


message 732: by Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :) (new)

Sophie | 2550 comments Mod
HAHAHA Alice!! Great quote and completely agree!!

Do Caro in not very long (like episode 3 and 4) you will not like Henry very much. He seems nice, at the moment!!


message 733: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments uhhh okay!!


message 734: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments ill finish maybe tomorrow she just got to milton pretty good


message 735: by Aerykah (new)

Aerykah | 2071 comments I'm so glad you're finally watching it, Caro! ENJOY!! ;D

Personally, I never did like the look of Henry... I was like "Please tell me she doesn't like this guy!?" My sis just laughed & said "Just hush and keep watching."

Carolyn (caroheartsbooks) | 897 comments haha :) maybe im a poor judge of regency character


message 737: by Aerykah (new)

Aerykah | 2071 comments Of regency character, huh? ;P
Did you like Wickham in Pride & Prejudice?


message 738: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh man, Wickham in 'Lost in Austen' was an awesome character. *Sigh* If only he was the real Wickham...

Yeah. Georgianna turned out to be the 'bad guy'and Wickham, being honourable just played along with her lies in order to protect her. The actor was cute too, so that's a plus. :P


message 743: by Aerykah (new)

Aerykah | 2071 comments But that was a totally wacky spin-off of P&P...


message 744: by [deleted user] (new)

It was pretty terrible, I must say. But it has its good parts.


message 745: by Sophie, The Romantic Moderator :) (new)

Sophie | 2550 comments Mod
Inward always weary of Henry. Creepy man
Lost in Austen is terrible and I HATED that Wickham was good (and handsome) as he isn't meant to be!!!
