A suggestion a day from the Williamsburg Regional Library
It is great to see how different views we can have on books. I have heard others praising this book as well. I love Jane Austen but think this is her worst book. I find it boring, nothing is happening, too many details on, for example, the theatre play (how interesting is that?), a totally irritating heroine and much more.
I have read all her famous books and will be reading Sandition this year. Saw the TV-series which I found great. I have big hopes the books will be great as well. Have you read it?
I believe I have, but it didn’t make much impression on me. I think the TV series probably juiced it up a bit and also put an ending on it, because it was unfinished.
I felt it as well. I was sure there would be a continuation, but read there was not. I was very disappointed.
