A review by katymaryreads
Persuasion by Jane Austen

emotional lighthearted reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I love this book even on the umpteenth re-read. Anne is such a lovely heroine. I love the portrayal of the navy and its camaraderie. I love the descriptions of Bath.

I love the backstory between Mr Elliott and Mrs Smith

Sir Walter and Elizabeth are love-to-hate relatives, the Musgroves a lovely contrast, and Mary and her whining is light relief. I love everything about this book!
