This book is good so far however I feel like I’ve hit a big reading slump on it. I’m over 200 pages in I feel like the main character has just been doing the same things on a loop. No way should it take me 2 months to read this book.

This book is really disappointing me. I love the movie so much and I really enjoy classic literature so I had high hopes. However, the characters in this book are insufferable the three main characters are so whiny and complaining all the time and just seemed very immature that it’s hard to buy into the story.

I hate to say but this is the first time in my life I think that the movie is better than the book.

I don't even know where to begin with my thoughts on this so far. I guess to begin it is utterly heartbreaking to read and not to sound ridiculous but she really was just a girl forced into an unimageable situation. I find that I can only read bits of this at a time before it becomes too much and I have to put it down. Knowing how it ends is haunting. When I am not reading it I can't stop thinking about Anne.

This book is finally picking up LOL. I only have 4 chapters left and everything is coming together and I am engaged in the plot again. With this being the longest of Austen's books I do feel like she rambled on and on in the beginning about details and characters that weren't significant. Now that is is all coming to the head I'm enjoying it a lot more.

Ugh I'm still reading this.... but I have been prioritizing other books and picking this up only when I feel like it. I would just give up on it but my goal is to read all of Jane Austen's books by the end of the year.

Oof this is a hard read. I have read two Jane Austen books before this one and have enjoyed them but I am on Chapter 23 and cannot get into it.

I have read more than half this book in less than a day. It’s so good and disturbing at the same time. I can’t say I’ve ever read a book like this. 10/10 would recommend

I feel like they could have done a bit of a better job setting the characters up. I feel like if you didn’t watch the series first you would be a little confused.

I fear that this book may have been overhyped. The summary is a bit misleading.

It’s an interesting perspective to read a WWII historical fiction book from the German side …
