Well, well, well, our Miss Becky is beginning to show her true colors and her adeptness at using people very much to her advantage. Not that she has not all the way through the book done this, but she does it now with a different attitude and heart.
Jos is off somewhere, most likely in India again doing whatever he does there.
Miss Amelia has begun to grow a backbone which I am so glad to see.
Thackeray writes this entire work with his tongue in his cheek and I quite enjoy the result of his efforts.

This third part is a bit slow going up until the last chapter. Then things begin to pick up.

Pick up, indeed they do Belva. Won't someone tell Amelia that her husband was not the paragon of virtue she thinks he was?
