i think this book suffers from not knowing what it actually is. the title and blurb advertise it as being a story of jane austen falling in love when it’s really about suffering for your art whether it be because of age, gender, or any other reason

this story has been advertised to me as a love story, and while there is love, it feels more to me a story of grief and depression and finding the love in and after those times

Did not finish book. Stopped at 16%.
i think this author’s writing just might not be for me tbh. also, listen i love fanfic, but this is screaming 2010s wattpad and not in a good way. 
“…watched her from afar, wearing a pair of legings and a giant crew neck hoodie. Noelle bit her lip as she stared at the display of cookies.
It almost thought she was standing there debating whether or not she should get them. It made me smile. A lot of the things this girl did had that effect on me. I didn't want to take the time to analyze why that might be, why I'm so entranced by her presence.
Even with her hair up in a messy bun and no makeup on, it hit me once again how beautiful she was.”

like messy bun, no makeup, and leggings? y/n fantasy come to life.
