While Pip isn’t as naive as she was two books ago, there is still just a lot in this novel that represents a more juvenile perspective on life and that makes the story unrealistic. I love the romance and family elements that were included in this latest installment. I’m surprised, in a way, about Pip’s actions and her acceptance of them but lean towards believe that she did what was best.
