Review: I really enjoyed this book - it's part of a series so some of the characters/story lines are familiar if you're working your way through the series. I like to read a wide selection of novels and always read or re-read a classic in between more modern stories throughout the year.

Review: Excerpt: "She was one who could fain be doing something if she handiest knew how, and the primary crucial try she made turned into to show her respectable young Tory husband right into a 2d-rate Whig bantling. As this female's man or woman will, it is was hoping, show itself within the following pages, we want no longer now describe it more carefully." Quickly followed by: "As a completely young guy, Frank Gresham found the existence to which he became for that reason added agreeable sufficient. He consoled himself as quality he might for the blue looks with which he became greeted through his own celebration, and took his revenge through consorting extra very well than ever together with his political adversaries." —and that's the point where I quit reading. Was this novel translated from English into Klingon then back to English via Google Translate, or what? Do NOT buy this Kindle book. I would dearly love to read what Trollope actually wrote, but I'm not going to find it in this edition. I will be scrubbing this purchase from my Kindle collection.
