Adorable. Much more true to life events than other Austen novels.

This could very well have been a 5/5 if it were a bit longer (around a hundred more pages I reckon). That extra length would have, imo, given some of the side characters more room to grow and develop. As it is, there are certain characters who feel a bit flat. Still a great read though.
