Just a bit too long, but still fantastic. Anne is the best Brontë sister and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise.
I think I would have preferred Helen have ended up with someone completely outside of the story of her suffering, but Gilbert Markham is a kind man who demonstrates the ability to reflect and change and does truly care for her, so it could be worse.
