Abbeychurch: or, Self Control and Self Conceit by Charlotte Mary Yonge

challenging informative reflective slow-paced

Abbeychurch is the charming first novel of Charlotte Mary Yonge. Overall, I found this to be a middle of the road Yonge novel, but I enjoyed seeing the foundations of her writing as well as how she improves in later books. Her characters have sparkling wit that are reminiscent of Jane Austen characters, and her family dynamics are always so well done. This plot wasn't as engaging to me as her other works, but I am glad I read this one, and it was an enjoyable read!
