Aww, I'm sorry Miss Marjoribanks disappointed you! It's not like I shipped Lucilla and Tom as such, but I actually didn't mind the ending, because I don't think that marriage is going to stop Lucilla from continuing her social manoeuvering and in general living her best life.

I wish there was an audiobook of Life and Adventures of Mrs Christian Davies! But in the process of searching for one, I started listening to Moll Flanders instead... Where did you find the text of Life and Adventures of Mrs Christian Davies, by the way? It's not on Gutenberg that I can see.
