Book Reviews of Persuasion

Book Review: "I am half agony, half hope..."
Summary: 5 Stars

I have never copied the title of my review from a different reader, but I did it this time. The title for this review comes from the letter that was written out by the hero. I LOVED THE LETTER. The most sensual love letter that I have ever read.
Not even one kiss in this book, but while you reading it, it is like you would take a deep breath and hold it until the end. The beautiful choice of words, keep your mind of state mesmorized. I loved the way that she wrote about every feeling or thought the heroine had in a presence of a man she loved so many years. Also, how she was in apprehension of every meeting with him and weighting every word that he has said. The climax in the book was when he handed her the letter to pour his feelings buried inside for her. What a beautiful letter! The writer also has a great way to describe human nature. The writer grabs you with rich words.
But the book is full of making acquaintences which was a bit too much for me in this book. But it is regency area after all.
