Reading another Trollope book-- Mr Scarborough's Family, which I'm liking more than Miss Mackenzie. One of the characters turned out to be a villain which I honestly wasn't expecting based on the first four chapters (we find out he's a villain in chapter five or six), so that was weird. He even does the cliched villain-ranting-to-his-minion thing, which is actually kind of funny. Some nice female characters in here, too, with staunch personalities and a mind of their own.
