I really liked this book; finally a classic that was fairly easy to get through. I liked the storyline, way of writing and the pace. There are definitely some controversial/outdated views on women’s worth, but for a book from 1891 I didn’t expect otherwise so I could read through it. The characters weren’t ‘lovable’ but it wasn’t disturbing while reading. Recommend and would read again!
