[.uk] Abbeychurch (2nd Digital Edition)

For Christian Readers:
I read this together with the Castle-Builders, so forgive me if some of the material is more relevant to the other title. Charlotte Yonge may have originally intended some of her books for younger readers -- if this was ever meant to be a book for children, then all I have to say is that Victorian children weren't as stupid as ours. This is an excellent little piece about the importance of confirmation, as seen from the view of two teenage girls. It is one of the most involved -- and emotional works on confirmation I have ever read. Those of us who are not Anglican might still find it of relevance in exploring the issue of baptism. Anyone looking for good Christian romance or women's fiction might want to pick this up.
