3.5
Pro: un libro che parla di libri, ambientato in un luogo che sembra speciale ed in cui vorrei vivere anche io. Molto apprezzato il racconto di un pezzo di storia assolutamente sconosciuto.
Contro: i romanzi epistolari non sono mai stati il mio genere e ho sempre trovato questo modo di raccontare faticoso da seguire, quasi frustrante. Avrei voluto leggere questa storia "più da vicino" e sono sicura che se fosse stato scritto come un romanzo classico avrei apprezzato molto di più anche la storia.
Il finale è un pochino abbozzato e lasciato lì, anche alcune dinamiche avrei voluto fossero più approfondite.
Tutto sommato comunque una bella lettura. Voglio assolutamente riguardare il film con Lily James, che ai tempi mi era piaciuto tantissimo e che forse continuerebbe a piacermi più del libro originale.
