A review by berlinbibliophile
Miss Austen by Gill Hornby

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

3.0

The bits of Cassandra Austen's life presented here are a bit random and haphazard, but I liked the writing and the idea of the letters. And the very different perceptions of herself she encounters in the past and in the present from her various family-members.
