I liked this book a lot, only reason its not 5 stars is because i had to read it for school, resulting in me analysing it for 3 weeks.
the character development of Catherine is probably my favourite aspect of this novel by Jane Austen. at the beginning of the novel catherine is unopinionated and very passive. 
in part 2 of the novel we see catherines development as she becomes for opinionated, especially towards thorpe.
