The Last Chronicle of Barset by Anthony Trollope

5.0

Oh how i loved this, there is so much wonderful about this book. First of all it was a wonderful end to the barsetshire chronicles and tied the ends very well and secondly i just love Johnny Eames and his storylines 

even though i am so very sad that he did not end up with Lily, Poor Johnny Eames indeed. I was very surprised by the ending of his story with miss Demolines it turned very thrillery at the end. But still i feel so sorry for him, i know that he may have been a bit too percistent with Lily but still is that ass Crosbie had not ruined everything it might all have been all right. But i also understand Lily, you should not marry someone just because everyone around you think that you should mary him, i think that is a very strong message, even though i would have wished her to have ended up with him like everyone around her wished. Lastly I really liked the Major Grantly, Grace romance, it seems like the romance from Doctor Thorne and Framley Parsonage all over again, but this time the male love interest was better in my opinion, that he wants to sacrifice everything for her is just so romantic. And i do understand that he might have been a little dissapointed that he did not have to give it all up and live in "poverty" with his love, who does not want to fantasise about that sort of thing ;-)
