I really enjoyed listening to Cynthia Erivo reading this Jane Austen classic; it was perfectly paced and her tone of voice suited the characters well, especially Ann the main character.
There isn't much to say about this book that hasn't already been said.
At times I found Ann a bit annoying, she creates so many of her own problems but then don't we all?! The themes of ensuring love and how two people who are meant to be together will always find their way back to eachother are what you read this book for. There is a reason Jane Austen's work is still popular today, she wrote about the everyday problems people find themselves on with warmth and humour; we can all relate to unrequited love or at least thinking that love is unrequited. We can all relate to family drama and being forced to spend time with people we'd rather not share a dinner conversation with.

One of my favorite novels by Jane Austen. There is a tender sofness to this story that I really enjoy. Anne is a very lovable character and her reconciliation with Fredrick is very satisfying.
Finalmente ho letto anche io persuasione!!
Amo la Austen, scrive divinamente. Un po' sottotono come trama, ma comunque molto immersivo.
Corro a divorare un altro suo libro!
