“3.5 ⭐️
countess olenska, oh ellen mingott, my love, i love you so deeply
the ending of this book was probably one of the most well written things i have ever read
"No. I forgot. You never did ask each other any-thing, did you? And you never told each other anything. You just sat and watched each other, and guessed at what was going on underneath. A deaf-and-dumb asy-lum, in fact! Well, I back your generation for knowing more about each other's private thoughts than we ever have time to find out about our own””
