We only read two of EBB's works for my Victorian Poetry seminar: Sonnets From the Portuguese and Aurora Leigh. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the Sonnets - beautiful, heartbreaking, and very touching. Aurora Leigh was less enjoyable, but still very pretty. I'm happy to report that I like EBB!
Some of her works were great and that is why I give it 4 stars, but there are quite a few that left me baffled.

I laughed so hard I cried. And everything in the book about the grotesque face of celebrity worship has rung more true with each passing year.
I'm really into Aurora Leigh right now. It's my new Pride and Prejudice.
