Un libro hermoso para todas la mujeres donde la perfección y belleza de una mujer se puede tocar con la ternura del ser humano maravilloso que es la mujer. Los rosas con los que se pintan cada capítulo y los colores pasteles que está en cada narración es totalmente diferente.
Emma is often praised for its witty prose, compelling characters, and insightful exploration of social dynamics. While it can be a challenging read for some, particularly those new to Austen, the novel's humor and engaging plot, centered around Emma Woodhouse's matchmaking schemes and her eventual personal growth, make it a rewarding experience for many.
I don't want to waste anymore of my time on Emma's overconfidence and arrogance. Harriet following her around like a 'lovesick' girl only feeds to the fire. It's annoying.
I think I enjoyed this as much as Pride and Prejudice. I love a friends to lovers romance, so that aspect was great for me. I thought the insufferable characters were less insufferable than some other Austen novels, and the quirks of characters were more endearing to me than annoying. Miss Bates never annoyed me, I just loved her. My only complaint I think is with the classism, but that's a product of the time.
