Agnes Grey
by Anne Brontë
Anne is so underrated.
This is such a great book, especially when read in contrast to her sisters' books. It's very interesting to see similar character types and themes looked at from a different light. The romance is very understated, but I don't think that's wrong, since it's not really the point of the book. It isn't really meant to be dramatic but rather an honest portrayal of a governess's life at the time. I think it's a must-read for any lover of the time period or classic literature in general.
