Absolutely frothing at the mouth reading North and South (victorian novel that uses romance as a vehicle to talk about radical-at-the-time ideas about class and social services) when Margaret argues that the upper class should help the poor (because inherent superiority of upper class and lowkey christian paternalism) and Thornton argues that the poor should help themselves and suffering builds character (because of inherent equality of all people but also the birth of rugged individualism and rampant capitalism) and Thornton and Margaret are so pissed off but also are on a collision course to kiss about it (and both challenge all their preconceived notions of class, wealth, and social services) and this was all 13 years before Karl Marx wrote the first volume of Das Kapital. Listen, I'm not saying North and South is the greatest book of all time from either a social justice or romance perspective but I will say that I have massive overwhelming brainworms about it and I need everyone to read it right now.

sometimes a family isn't a mom, dad, and kid. sometimes it's a lady detective, a deceivingly badass catholic, a butler named mr. butler, two inseparable commie taxi drivers, a ruggedly handsome divorcee, a himbo, a lesbian doctor, a 14 year old kleptomaniac, and aunt prudence
