One of my favorite books!
Bought this copy for Bookcrossing at a charity booksale. :)
Complete and unabridged
Back of cover:
Emma is the culmination of Jane Austen's genius, a sparkling comedy of love and marriage.
Emma Woodhouse is introduced to us as 'handsome, clever and rich' and, according to Jane Austen, a heroine 'which no one but myself would like'. Yet such is Emma's spirited wit that, despite her superior airs and egotism, few readers have failed to succumb to her charm.
The comedy turns on Emma's self-appointed role as energetic match-maker for her sweet, silly friend Harriet. Emma herself, meanwhile, is confidently immune to the charms of the male sex. Her emotional coming of age is woven into what Ronald Blythe has called 'the happiest of love stories, the most fiendishly difficult of detectives stories and a matchless repository of English wit'.

I love Jane Austen's novels and never grow tired of reading them. I lent this book this summer to my daughter and she brought it with us on a trip to Europe. Unfortunately, she didn't finish it on the trip so we couldn't release it in Europe, but she finished it and gave it back to me.
I am donating this book to the ABC VBB organized by booklady331.

I looked all over for this book because someone had requested it from the ABC VBB. I could not find it. However, this has happened before when later I find a book that I could not find earlier. But for now, I am going to say that this book is missing.
I found this book today. It was in my boxes of books. I discovered a while ago that there was one box hidden away underneath a bunch of other boxes (containing Christmas ornaments or other items). Perhaps, it was in that box. Anyway, I found it today. I am planning on moving so I am reducing the amount of books that I have in my possession. This will be marked for release sometime soon.
