Hi

A newbie leaps into the breach! imho, Daisy seemed so intensely irritating that I don't believe Landen could possibly have loved her on personality grounds, unless she had a total charm transplant happening off page!

How could a perceptive man be so fooled unless he wanted to be?

he was settling...since he couldn't have Thursday, he settled, but once she said she was interested, he probably felt he couldn't go back on his word, being the gentleman he is/was LOL

I still reckon it's a case of 'if you can't be with the one you love, love the you're with'... Welcome to the fforum, belochka...

This is the work of an Italian narco-anarchic collective. Don't bother insulting them, they can't read English anyway.

Sorry PSD, I seem to be re-generating hello's here. I'm definitely losing track of my threads here:)

I had a sudden contradictory thought about Landen's feelings, if he just wanted children with Daisy without any deeper emotions would he have been the kind of man to pretend the happy family scenario?

My brain loves both sides of an argument.

Just had a quick re-read of parts of The Diary of A Nobody and can't find any redeeming features in Daisy Mutler at all! She leaves Lupin Pooter to marry Murray Posh, seemingly because the latter has money.

Could she have gone for Landen for the same reason? She's obviously a girl who could 'show a man a good time' and maybe Landen just need someone to 'cuddle up to' (ahem!) on the re-bound from Thursday?

BTW, Hi Belochka and welcome.

Hi mez

yeah I'm one of the many who fell out of the closet this week, as I think PSD or Jon put it;) Only my second day in and I'm addicted to reading the posts.

B

can't find any redeeming features in Daisy Mutler at all

Exactly.
So why would Landen want to marry someone like that...aside from the occassional 'cuddle'?

Because Landen isn't Landen!

Landen died in Crimea along with Thursday's brother. This fake Landen is a corrupt Chronoguard with Landen's face, a la Felix8, who works for Hades (who actually works for someone a smidgen more evil; probably Max Golgoth, a director of Goliath and part-time cross-dressing Russian spy). The whole thing with Daisy Mutler/Posh was set up by Max in order to get close to Thursday so that when her father turned up to rescue her in a nick in time he would be easier to assassinate before he could 'correct' a slight mishap that led to Rasputin being made Tsar.

Of course, if you've only read Lost In a Good Book version 1.5.2b you'll think I'm mad. But it's all there in Whitey Noir's memoirs: Good in a Lost Book.

H'mmm...
