I love this book so much. If I loved it less I might be able to talk about it more.

I don't understand. Why does everyone like Jane Austen's books so much? Sure, Emma was better than Pride and Prejudice but ahhhh was it boring. Still probably will read more of her book in the future just to torture myself even more. ...more

Absolutely captivating! Most beautifully and cleverly written and structured. I feel that any review I write will not be sufficient enough to praise the Authoress' genius in creating such animating, unique, realistic as well as colorful characters.

Fourth time is the charm! I attempted to read Emma 3 times, and DNF’d it 3 times, before finally finishing it on attempt #4. I actually did enjoy the second half of this book much more than the first. But of all Austen’s books I’ve read (and I adored the others), I found this one the most slow-paced and most boring. Glad to finally have completed it and looking forward to seeing the movie!
