Emma by Jane Austen
3.25
funny hopeful lighthearted slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Undeniably Jane Austen, full of wit, social commentary of the time, astute observations, and plenty of meddling in romantic affairs. I just didn't like this one very much, especially in comparison to P&P and S&S. The Elizabeth Klett Libravox audiobook comes highly recommended, I wouldn't have got through it without such a good narrator.
