Wherein Georgiana gets an eye infection that nearly kills her and leaves her brain damaged (or traumatized; hard to tell). Bess becomes a widow, gains financial independence, and gets her sons back. Bess's lover becomes a widower. And all this in a single page. Whatever shall happen next?

CHAPTER 19 END & PART 3 END /// Okay, but there are seriously large chapters and seriously short ones. Nothing really happened in this chapter except that Georgiana Jr has come out and is of marriage age and Bess is still waiting for Duke of Richmond to propose to her.

CHAPTER 17 END /// Georgiana is now a fully satisfied housewife and science woman who totally isn't dabbling in politics at all no not even a little bit and certainly not that thing which you just saw and swore would be dabbling except it isn't because she said it wasn't. Earl Grey has married and Georgiana has grieved the end of that love affair. The Prince has a commitment problem. And Harriet is healthy. For now.

CHAPTER 16 END /// Okay, now for real Marie Antionette lost her head. Harriet has a fancy title because her father in law died. The Duke of Devonshire has expelled and then recalled his women. Georgiana birthed Earl Grey a daughter whose last name is somehow both significant and insignificant but I couldn't follow it. And apparently France decade war on England and is winning?
