I really enjoyed this book. Pride and Prejudice is still my favorite Jane Austen book, but this one is up there.
It's just a fun book that revolves around community and family, meddling in other people's business, keeping secrets. It's silly but charming.
Main character, Emma, is a spoiled, sheltered young woman from a high-class family. She's pretty clueless about a lot of things, but she means well and is trying to make life better for those around her. I did enjoy her as a character.
