Emma

Classics are tough for me to follow. I always get about halfway through and see if there is a movie adaptation I can watch so I have a better understanding of what's happening before finishing the book. When I looked up this one and saw that Clueless was a loose adaptation the whole book clicked for me. Mr. Knightly is one of my favorite Austen male leads. I thought it was interesting that the somewhat vapid and bubbly character that Austen usually writes as a sister or side character was the main character for this book. Emma was annoying, but her love for Harriet was beautiful.
