TW: There's a scene in which someone is surrounded and physically stopped by other people to detain them from doing something, which is uncomfortable to read, especially if you suffered bullying or abuse.
I didn't expect this to be this good! I came into this book with zero expectations, thinking it would be as to my dislike as Emma was, but the story is really entertaining, the protagonist very innocent, not pretentious and warm, as well as most of her acquaintances, which made the book very pleasing.
