It is really great so far, both very readable and you can tell that it's deeply embedded in actual history. Which I would have expected from a rec from you :D
(Also, being unlike you and novels being easier for me than nonfic, it's good rest from doing Ziebura, whom I love but which is heavier going!)
Oh, good, I'm glad you're enjoying it! (Lol, especially since I apparently recced it to you practically every April and September since 2018, according to Gmail comment notifications. I would hate for it to be a dud.)
I not only find it readable, but it makes me feel completely immersed in the sheer passion and intensity of the characters' personalities. I would have liked more Anne, but it does do a good job of acknowledging her hidden steel, as well as Charlotte's discomfort with it.
I'm also glad it's providing a much needed break in 18th century history. :)
