Persuasion: An Audible Original Drama by Florence Pugh, Jane Austen

4.0

Persuasion is definitely not my favorite Austen novel. It mainly hinges on the fact that I don't really like Anne Elliot. It's probably because as an overly confident, loud woman, Anne's stoicism is not a character trait I admire. However, this performance with narration from one of my current favorite British actress (Ms. Flo) is very enjoyable. It's like a warm relaxing bath or cup of tea with heavy cream- just what I needed after a tough week. While I don't care for Anne, I do like the side characters. I actually like her sister Mary, even if she's a bit much. But to be fair, I'm probably a bit much too.
