Hm. What does one say about Emma, other than it was boring, unimpressive, and downright lame? I think that just about sums up all my feelings about this wretched book. I’ve only read two books by Jane Austen, and one I love while this one I really could have done without–I spent weeks reading this, ...
Where Pride and Prejudice is witty and contains an elaborate plot and brilliant characters Emma's strength's lie in its critique of its character's actions.

I listened to this recently and while I love Emma, sometimes the reader's voice as he juggled the various players, got on my nerves.
