Possible Pop Sugar 2020 Prompts: Bildungsroman, passes Bechdel test, 4 star rating on GoodReads, 3 word title, written more than 20 books

THIS STORY IS BETTER THAN PRIDE AND PREJUDICE THERE I SAID IT. I found the characters much more complex and I found myself feeling torn, not sure who to root for and who was right or wrong. I love books like this that are more complex, but you end up falling for the characters, and the discussion of class and unions was done so well. LOVE.
