Same, I picked up the book this afternoon :)

[Cordelianne]

I have read until chapter 4 and I really like it so far, but I do think Emma comes over as a bit judgy and silly sometimes. What do you think so far?

[Cordelianne]

I have finished the first volume (view spoiler)[ I was not surprised by the fact that the matchmaking scheme did not work. I think the feelings of mister Elton were quite visible, but I am curious to see in what direction the book will go in volume 2 (hide spoiler)] How far are you know?

[Lou, Book Queen]

omgggg I haven't been keeping up to date im so so sorry!

I've read up to chapter 3 (last week was rough in general) and I'm really liking Emma? I know she's quite the personality but I think it gives a little flavour to the book 😝😁

I'm gonna try and keep up and maybe finish part 1 and get halfway into part 2 by the end of this week. I'm super sorry I'm behind!

No worries, I am almost finished with volume 2 right now. So I will just continue, but after every volume I will make a spoiler comment :)

I have finished the second volume. (view spoiler)[ I don't really like Frank Churchill, but I do really like Knightley, so I am curious how the last volume will wrap up everything. (hide spoiler)]

Okey doke. And then I'll reply to your comment when I've finished the same section..

[Cordelianne]

I just finished the book, I will add more to what I think of it a bit later!

[Cordelianne]

I haven't made much progress... hoping to read a lot of it tonight tho!

[Lou, Book Queen]

I've finished the first volume and am halfway into the second!
(view spoiler)[ I'm kinda mad at Emma for thinking the Martins weren't good enough just because of their social standing but I can't really be mad for long... she's just such a... frustratingly brilliant can't-help-but-love character!
I really do love Mr. Knightly though.... and Frank I don't like the seemingly perfect perception of...
Wondering if he'll turn out to be a Mr. Wickham... (hide spoiler)]

Yes true tht was not very nice of Emma...

[Lou, Book Queen]

I forgot to update... I finished it and reeeally liked it!
Maybe it was the atmosphere but everything about Austen's books just have me falling in love each time!

[Cordelianne]

No worries glad to hear you liked it!
