dembury's review against another edition
5.0
Anne Elliot is the queen of palpable longing, covert glances, and needing to excuse yourself for a moment to go cool down after seeing your old love for approximately .5 seconds. Although to be fair, I too would have needed to be tranquilized after reading Captain Wentworth’s letter. Like, “I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own, than when you almost broke it eight years and a half ago”?!? “You pierce my soul. I AM HALF AGONY, HALF HOPE”?!? Somebody fetch me some Xanax.

I think I just read this at a bad time, but I could not for the life of me bring myself to care about this book at all, genuinely have no idea why. I don’t even think this book is bad or anything, but I had to read it in like two days for class so I couldn’t really absorb it much, which I think made it boring for me. Maybe I’ll reread it one day and change my opinion, but I just didn’t connect with this one.

This is some of Jane Austen’s most beautiful writing. I do feel it is missing something…the world if she published it while she was alive. But overall incredibly moving and affecting
