ellierichards90 's review for:
The Portrait of a Lady
by Henry James
I found "A Portrait of a Lady" to be a gentle, pleasant read. The story gradually moves along and introduces a series of characters and settings, at a pace where it is easy to keep up.
Isabel was a likable protagonist, and was a refreshingly strong character considering when the book was written.
I've marked the book down slightly as I felt some sections dragged a bit, and parts of the story could have been omitted without detracting from the plot.
I would definitely recommend this book if you are a fan of classics, but it may be a little daunting to people who haven't read many so wouldn't suggest this as a starting point.
