Little things in TSH that I had missed or forgotten the first time I read it:
It took Richard a whole year of pestering the college to let him in. It really proves how obsessive he is
Richard bumping into Francis in the hall before he joins the study group and being like: “Wowee I can’t believe that guy touched me. That was so cool; he was SO cool :D”
Francis talking to a cat he found on campus 🥹
CHARLES AND CAMILLA HAVE SLIGHT SOUTHERN ACCENTS
Julian loves flowers and keeps a bunch in his classroom
Richard’s Totally Real Car, Christine
Judy costuming, in her own words, “fucking As You Like It” implying that she also has to study obnoxious literature for her classes
Bunny genuinely believing Francis is as smart as Henry
Bunny is the only person who can make Henry laugh 🥺
Francis had a relative who died on the Titanic
Bunny would hide out at Richard’s whenever he pissed Marion off
Francis used to read Richard’s French homework out loud for him
Henry’s middle name is Marchbanks
Francis is a fan of the Boston Red Sox
The twins shrug with one shoulder
Henry finds Gucci “rather grand”
Charles’ wild cat that he forces Francis and Richard to bring to the farmhouse
Richard reads Proust *cough, cough, kinda gay, cough, cough*
When Francis is in the hospital in the epilogue, Richard reads “Our Mutual Friend” to him which, according to Goodreads, is about “the unfailing power of wealth to corrupt all who crave it.”
