This is so beautifully written. Jane Austen is just amazing. 

I'm really surprised by the dislike towards Fanny. I found her quite admirable, she knew her mind & she did not falter despite the fact that everyone piled up on her.

This is no romance but a social commentary. I was aware of this prior to reading so I was not disappointed like many seem to be.
