Emma by Jane Austen

Emma by Jane Austen was not on my list of books to read. In fact, I read the first several pages of the novel a while back and was so bored I decided to switch to another book. But as time would have it, I ended up reading it weeks later. In other words, one of my friends read this book and advised me to read it because the story lime becomes much more interesting.

Although I still find it a bit confusing this is what I know so far about the main character, Emma.

She is considered very good looking, clever and to top it off with a cherry, she is a member of the Woodhouse family, making her rich stereotypically, Rich people tend to be stuck up and stubborn. Emma seem to be a prime example of that.
She is currently 21 years old, and single. She intends to stay that way, with that being said I think Emma is the type of girl who is not ready for any type of commitment. So, I can't wait to continue reading to see what happens when Emma's flirtatious moves turn into a serious situation, transforming into a love interest.

The only reason, I feel any sorrow for Emma is that she did not grow up with a mother's love because her mother died when Emma was young. I can't imagine any type of life without my mother. My mother is everything to me, so I feel sorry for any girl who didn't have a chance to have a mother-daughter relationship with the woman who gave birth to them.
