Personal Opinion (Min.50 words for 150-word summaries | Min. 100 words for 300-word summaries)
My personal opinion is: Ternam should not have been living with a married man who had a family, theconsequences of that act was a broken family, and unhappy children; and also I think she was too young for dickens, is a big age difference. |-------------------------------------------------
