Is this JE replaying?
Also, they changed the ending? How so?
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

There was a really fantastic flashback that just...ummm.
I kept thinking in that section. "His hands are HUGE!...They're the size of her head...I wonder if Steph is watching this."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Recorded and watching during a down spell. Although I'm having a migraine, and the match is so cool that relaxation is hard.
Federer also looks like he has the softest skin.
That is how I calm myself.
Not working too well.

My only quibble is the ending. That was a bit ... impossibly fairy tale for me, especially since the book ends in a perfectly lovely way as it is.
Yeah, I thought so too, and it seemed especially weird since it was a fairly dark portrayal otherwise.

I got they were tying it in to her childhood, but although I think the book did emphasize Jane's sadness at her lack of a family, it wasn't the whole point to me. So that bugged.
Yeah, but... I'm with you. It was kinda like huh? Show me the moment "Reader, I married him." Show me Rochester seeing his kid's eyes! Show me Jane being his eyes and all that. At least they included Adele. But still the guh moment! OK, I'm a little obsessed with that. Cause, guh! But the point was the romance. With a confused emotional jackass, which I now see and which kinda freaks me out as I adored that trope but anyway...

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Very cool match. There's been some great tennis this Open.

Because books.
Also, they changed the ending? How so?
They only tack something onto the end, brenda. It's a family portrait. But it includes the Rivers sisters, and George the aging manservant, and Mrs. Fairfax. Also, they have two kids, which bugs. As much I like to think Jane would have asked for something like that to be done, really, in that era, not so much.

At least you could be glad when Mercutio gets killed fairly early on.
Oh, and was I ever glad. Prior to this afternoon, I'd never been put in the position of rooting for Tybalt so he'd make Mercutio STFU.
