A Room with a View Illustrated

It took me a good 30 pages to feel invested in this story but once I was hooked, boy -was I hooked! Wonderful layers of humor, social commentary, Greek mythology references, and feel good romance to boot.

A delightful read for anyone who enjoys period dramas.

an enjoyable, clever little book. quite feminist for its day, really, this idea that a woman should reject the idea that her goal in life is to find a suitable husband who will guide her (while still embracing the idea of love) and expect that the man she loves should respect her mind and her opinions. I found it a bit slow at first, but once the characters started engaging in earnest dialogue I really got into it, and I enjoyed how the main characters grew (even the horrible Cecil in his own way...wonder what became of him).
