I thought it was very good, and sort-of ironic I listened to it on the day an Irish bowler did a quat-trick (I know four wickets in four balls is technically a double hat-trick, but it just isn't intuitively) and I don't think you're unfair on Ginty in that -- like Lois -- she does have self-awareness but it makes no difference. In fact, one thing you really brought out is that both Lois and Ginty are "He said 'She has a lovely face/Lord in his mercy bring her grace'" in their own ways. One almost wonders if Rowan's antipathy to Lois is because she's seen it at home, in an inchoate form (and in Autumn Term Rowan's savagery with Ginty's self-dramatics makes more sense if it's a sore spot already.)
