    I've noticed that there is a huge emphasis on fashion descriptions and choice of dress. I don't have the cultural context to know the subtle meaning behind some of the choices, but the emphasis on clothing as a method of characterization is very cool.

    Thoughts from 1% 🎧

    Archibald sighed again, running a thumb across a lavender G stitched into his kerchief. Georgiana had gifted it to him before they had married. She liked these sojourns no more than he, being left in London with nothing but servants to order around.

    This delightfully implies that she usually orders Archibald around when he is there. And he seems to like it. How delightful!

    Also, I love how the British thinks of his home as better, but is aware of it being ‘dreary, cold, and wet’. A weird super-inferiority complex? I hope the unexpectedness of these topics continues!
