I'm unsure about Maud and Sue. I loved that they had a happy ending. The book really needed it, and I couldn't believe the author was going to give them one, but was so happy when she did.

I think I'll have to wait for my second read to figure out how I feel about them. Both of them are definitely manipulated. But so are others in the story as well, who don't get happy endings. I felt especially sorry for that poor boot boy who followed Gentleman to London and caused everyone's downfall.

It was kind of hard for me to take how much Sue manipulated Charles. She was the victim of other people manipulating her and at that point she knew it and knew what misery it had brought her, but she had zero qualms about using Charles and then just tossing him aside. Which...isn't really what happened in the end, but she talked about how she was going to. She didn't care at all how she dragged him through the mud as long as he gave her what she wanted. :/
