A review by emilyakers11821
Persuasion by Jane Austen

5.0

Anne has never been the center of her family. She is always the last considered and basically an outlier. The only man she has ever been interested in she was swayed to break things off with. Now 8 years later he's back and looking for a wife. Everyone though is pushing all available women on him except her. Anne has never been forward and tends to think of herself as unworthy of good things happening to her. With no one to prioritize Anne, how will anything ever go right for her?

I was rooting for Anne the entire book. I continued to get annoyed when people kept walking all over her and not even considering her wanting to have her own happily ever after. This book lead on for so long making the end so satisfying. I was beginning to think she was going to be left to someone not good enough for her.
