Mansfield Park Volume 2 Chapters 11-12

Fanny has the post-party comedown, Edmund and Mary maybe break up, and HENRY CRAWFORD IS IN LOOOOOOVE!

Topics discussed include Mr. Wobbles at the party, cribbage, Edmund and Mary as the regency era Ross and Rachel, the threat of the Owen girls, and of course, Henry's feelings for Fanny and whether they're pure.

Patron Study Questions come from Emily, Avi, Spring, Angelika, Emily, Linnea, and Flying Cupcake. Topics discussed include the fact that Edmund has never written Fanny a letter, the Crawfords' kindness, Edmund's affection toward Fanny, whether Henry Crawford can be redeemed, "I can fix him" vs. "She can fix me," whether Henry's love is lasting, Mary's POV, and why Henry thinks Fanny loves him.

Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include Mary's jealousy, whether Henry will make a better husband than his uncle, why Henry fell for Fanny, Henry's perception of Fanny with the Bertrams, and whether people can change.

Funniest Quote: "Oh yes! missed as every noisy evil is missed when it is taken away; that is, there is a great difference felt. But I am not fishing; don’t compliment me."

Questions moving forward: Will Henry propose? Will Fanny say no? Will Edmund and Mary ever see each other again?

Who wins the chapters? Henry!
