This is a very slow paced book. The middle takes FOREVER to get through, but the beginning is strong and the end is so good! It is a darker book not a fluffy romance like Jane Austen. It is a dark romance but not the kind like nowadays where people get kidnapped and such. Overall, It was good and I get why it is a classic. 

Quotes:

“Children can feel, but they cannot analyze their feelings.”

“I was not heroic enough to purchase liberty at the price of caste.”

“There is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow creatures.”
