I read this for book club. I have mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand, I loved being so inside Anne's mind throughout the book. I definitely love her character. But I would have liked to have known other characters more. They all seem flat to me, especially Captain Wentworth. However, I expect that may have been purposely done by Austen. Keeping us so tied to Anne's point of view made it easier to see the satirical commentary Jane was creating about courtship and rank in that era. Over all, a very enjoyable book that I highly recommend to others.
