i had high expectations for this book since i’ve heard people say it’s jane austen’s most beautiful book or something like that. it was beautiful but idk

i sort of felt as if i needed to see anne and wentworth’s past relationship to actually be able to be attached to them as a couple bc throughout the book it was just him ignoring her and stuff 😭. it didn’t make me like him all that much. i did think that the letter thing was cute though!
