Emma, Emma, Emma!
I love Emma! She's one of my favourite characters. I think its because she is so flawed that I love her. She has so many faults (that Mr. Knightley
can't help point out), but at the same time she is still perfectly happy. She knows she is mischievious and silly, but she is happy in her world of
Hartfield. And compared to the other Austen heroines, she's the lesser. Austen talks her down considerably in contrast to say, Fanny Price or
Elizabeth Bennet.

yeah, she is a silly girl, she messes in other peoples buisness far too often! haha... but I still love her, despite her views on class and her own
conceitedness.

I definately had my challenges with her.
Bluntly put, she was a little prissy at times.
Like with the whole telling Harriet who was proper to marry. What is that?
Although it is kind of refreshing to see such a flawed main character in an Austen book.
