Reading Emma was a mix of amusement and frustration for me. Emma is spoiled, meddling, and often wrong—but that’s exactly what makes her growth so satisfying. I enjoyed watching her blunders turn into lessons, and by the end, I actually rooted for her. It’s witty, sharp, and one of Austen’s most playful works.
