Flight of the Heron read-along: Part I chapters 3-4

[regshoe]

I have just finished reading a Mary Renault novel and feel, predictably, absolutely awful about it. Time to distract myself with some Jacobites!

Next week we'll finish Part I with chapters 5 and 6.

Hehe, that's very true—keep watching the kilt swinging about Ewen's knees, Keith...

"But he was not to keep this resolution." Great use of omniscient narrator! And indeed by the end of the chapter he's back to teasing Ewen...it seems he can't help it. *g*

:D

I think Aunt Margaret is inclined to be a bit indulgently sentimental about Alison and Ewen's relationship (which is kind of sad, in the context of what we immediately afterwards learn about her backstory), so her making the question of secrets about that kind of makes sense? But it is a bit of a random segue.

Ooh, thank you for that write-up!
