Emma by Jane Austen
3.25

The plot was nice overall. Sonce the beginning I was hoping Emma would end up with
Mr Knightley
and I had guessed that
enemies to lovers
, so I am happy that it ended that way. 
Nonetheless, there were times when I was bored by some of the conversations (Mostly when miss Bates and Mrs. Elton talked, as they were insufferable) and sometimes I zoned off.
I had watched the film (the newest one, from amazon prime video) some years ago with my mom, and I hadn't liked it at all. I disliked Emma's character very much, and didn't understand her. Perhaps I'm wrong and it's because I was younger or my opinion has changed, but I believed Emma is portrayed differently in the film than the book, because reading it, I didn't hate Emma. She was mistaken, mostly in the beginning, but not nearly as bad as I remembered her.
Anyways I was planning on watching the movie again (and honestly that's why I read the book) so I'll see if my opinion about it changes, or if I have missed any details of the book.
