Well. I can see how this is an important piece of literature and would have been revolutionary for the time. So I'll give it props for being ahead of its time and a piece of feminist history. But I just did not care for this book. I found it to be quite boring and dull. There were moments that I found quite beautiful and well written but over all I just did not truly care what happened to the characters. I really wanted to like this since I typically enjoy literature from this time period but this just felt like a chore to read.
