I don’t think I’ll ever forget the time I spent in Middlemarch. These little lives were so exciting to follow. It’s amazing how I can get so invested in old time gossip between characters that I feel like I know so well. Miss Dorothea Brooke is definitely a character of all time for her idealism and honesty. Mr. Farebrother and Mr. Garth were my other two favorites. These characters felt so real and lively and I will miss them dearly!
