I did not dislike the book, although in part it was rather boring. Fanny's shyness are what make her an interesting observer of the other characters. Many other readers criticised the character for not being as active, but I did not mind. Still I would have liked for her to have more of a personality. However, I have to agree with the readers, who did not like the ending. It feels quite rushed and Edmund's change of heart is much confusing. I also was disappointed in how bland Edmund was.
