Stand your ground, Catherine!!

John Thorpe wants to be with Catherine so badly, yet he acts as if he doesn’t even like women. He’s too infatuated by his horses.

Saying “I don’t really read books”
Is such a red flag.

Now Jane, I can see one reason why this was not immediately published.

“and a very respectable man, though his name was Richard”
Why is this already so funny!
Sad Jane Austen had to wait 13 years for reasons unknown for this book to be published after she finished writing it.
