Persuasion by Jane Austen: Week 8

Lee is on page 134 of 260

Volume II, Chapter I & II

Damn. All the enjoyment I had is basically gone now… I only read two chapters in a row because I was in a good mood, not because I was actually enjoying the reading. I wasn’t actively suffering, mostly I was just bored. I had to reread several bits over and over because my mind kept drifting.

I think Wentworth and Anne are meant to get together in the end, but honestly I’d rather Anne just move on to that Benwick guy, at least he’s nice to her!


In this post I explained my plan to finally work my way through Jane Austen’s Persuasion (the only book of hers I don’t like at all).

At the end of each week, either Friday or Saturday, I will post an update of my progress and any thoughts, should I have them.
