s_e_ 's review for:

Agnes Grey by Anne Brontë

4.5

emotional inspiring reflective medium-paced

---

one of those classic romances that looks boring but is seriously entertaining and doesn't hold back with its reflections on religion and philosophy. Agnes' fighting with her internal critic (as well as the external challenges others present her with) is moving, and her unwavering determination to do good for others and forgive their flaws makes her a great role model
