So I'll admit I don't normally get on with books that are older or the 'classics' I can struggle to gel  with the writing and normally find it a bit boring but that wasn't the case with this book. 
This book was originally published in 1911 and was aimed at 'young and impressionable women primarily, followed by men and anyone else willing to listen', and to be honest I feel that this could have been written more recently rather than 90 years ago. I found Vivian really likeable and felt her frustration of wanting to do more than just be her womanly duty and marry and have children which I feel is something I still feel is still expected of women now though maybe not conveyed in the same way! Although this was supposed to be a warning to women and ti education them on topics not discussed then, it didn't feel like it and would be interested to learn more about Charlotte and read more of her works
