This is my favorite JA novel so far, and unless I really fall in love with Emma, I don’t think that’s going to change. I love how despite being a second chance romance on the surface, I think it’s much more about learning to trust yourself and your own judgment, which is something that resonated with me a lot. Also Wentworth’s letter had me giggling and kicking my feet. Love you Jane, you’ve never released anything but bangers 😘😘
