Patron Study Questions:
Avi: Earlier in the book Wentworth, clearly thinking of Anne, told Louisa that he liked firm characters. Now Louisa has changed her affection to Benwick. What do you think Wentworth’s reaction will be?
Ghenet: 1. Why do you think Louisa and Captain Benwick fell in love with each other? 2. We see Anne with members of the upper class and members of the lower class (by the Elliots’ standards) but where is it that you think Anne is most comfortable and most herself?
Emily: What point is Anne making about Benwick's character when talking about his change of heart, and is she doing him justice?
Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include the purpose widowers play in this story, what's shifted between Anne and Wentworth, Bath as a setting for their meeting.
Funniest Quote: "Anne sighed and blushed and smiled, in pity and disdain, either at her friend or herself. The part which provoked her most, was that in all this waste of foresight and caution, she should have lost the right moment for seeing whether he saw them."
Questions Moving Forward: What happened with Wentworth and Louisa? What will happen at the concert?
Who wins the chapters? Anne and Wentworth
