Has to be Lizzie because she likes walks too!
ReplyDeleteMary Crawford is a bad girl.
Oh, but, Nigel, Henry Tilney and Mr. Bennet are delightful in company as well! As for Mary, she might be complex and not quite as morally upright as Fanny Price, but she knows how to entertain a group of people at the dinner table!
ReplyDeleteSuch a difficult decision! I guess it would depend upon the dinner party. I would love the excuse to invite Mrs Bennett to a party that needed to be ended prematurely or Henry Tilney to speed dating...
ReplyDeletei have always thought that i would get along well with mr. bennet. i'd like to sit next to him, please.
