5.0

A beautifully descriptive book, full of Austen’s witticisms and insights. I really enjoyed the storyline (albeit a slow one with little plot) and most of all, Catherine’s character. The other characters were well-written and amusing at times, although I wish we found out what happened to Isabella and John Thorpe!
