This is the second novel by Anne Brontë that I've read, the previous one being The tenant of Wildfell hall. While I liked the first one, I much preferred this one. It was a very light and easy read and I read the last ten pages with a smile on my face. It was a lovely book with a feelgood ending, and was just right to curl up with this afternoon while I had the house to myself.
