Emma Final Question

Would you recommend this novel to another reader? Consider the lessons it has to offer, its overall readability, its ability to capture one's attention, and its representation as a novel of the Victorian era.

I would recommend this novel to another reader even though it wasn’t one of my favorite books (not that I have many favorites). I think the plot is kept interesting because of the changes in who likes who, who is coming into town, etc. I don’t think the book gave me a very good idea of Victorian age society, though. It wasn’t really hard to read, but it was longer than I wanted it to be. However, I liked the themes. The lesson was pretty easy to pick out and it was a well written book. I might advise someone to pick a more well-known book if they wanted to be able to compare their thoughts on the reading with someone else, but overall I think Emma was a good Victorian novel choice.
