After many years of struggling to get through the first few chapters, only to later give up and delete any previous reading entry so to not mark it as DNF, I have finally finished this book. On the whole I would say that this was an interesting read. Additionally, since I kinda knew what some of the twists were it was very fun when I noticed hints or scenes that foreshadowed the twists like all the interactions of Frank Churchill and Jane Fairfax. A really big thing in this book, in my opinion at least, was the miscommunication between the characters which while it may be frustrating in other books here it was understandable as most characters were looking at things in a way that satisfies their own desires. Except a few moments that would be very controversial if added to modern books, namely Harriet Smith being attacked by a group of g***ies and Mr Knigtley professing that he has loved Emma since she was 13 while they have a 16 year age difference, I really liked this book.
