I love Villette! Have you read Shirley yet? I love Shirley!
I think it's fine for her to marry M. Paul though -- doesn't he go to oversee somebody else's plantation? so technically he's not a slaveholder; he's the slaveholder's stooge -- because Lucy is kind of, um, racist and judgmental and creepy herself. I like her! But they pretty much deserve each other.
