Emma by Alexander McCall Smith
3.0

This book had the lowest average rating on my TBR list, so I went in with low expectations. But I turned out to be pleasantly surprised. It wasn’t a great novel but it was quietly charming and comforting to be back in a familiar story line. Obviously being set in present day makes some of the plot problematic and Emma is selfish, judgmental and irritating- but isn’t she always?
