alexiisnnguyen 's review for:
Persuasion
by Jane Austen
- 4.5 but definitely rounded up to a 5
- started off pretty slow, was a little hard to get into since there were a lot of characters being introduced and a lot of plot points to keep up with; plus all that logistical stuff with the elliot's house and finances were written in older english so it was a little hard to keep up with
- the most confusing thing about this book is how the story of the main pair was written. captain wentworth and anne were def endgame from the moment their story was introduced and he came back, but the way jane austen writes, it seemed like they were just a background story unfolding. a lot of the focus was on the side characters and background plots, so while those were being explained in detail, it seemed as if it just so happened that anne and wentworth found themselves and fell in love again - i wish that that was examined more closely b/c i do love their story!!
- WENTWORTH'S LETTER!! darcy ass way of confessing but i eat it up every. damn. time
- writing was beautiful as always, i'm always able to visualize a scene and the people that austen writes, even down to their mannerisms
- p&p is still my favorite, but i definitely would read this book again and lovedd the idea of it!
