Note that a 17 year old was considered a woman of marriable age, hence the age gaps between Harriet and her potential suitors not bearing mention within the book beyond that as a statement of fact

I love this book and every rendition of it that I’ve ever seen, but it was SO SLOW. This time period and Jane Austen in general writes in a really dense way. I like the humanly imperfect characters and there are a lot of funny moments.
