Book Review By Amanda Wesley
Emma by Jane Austen

Emma is a girl with her head too much in the clouds. A self-proclaimed matchmaker, the only matches she seems to make thoughtout the book are bad ones. She clashes, again and again, with her brother-in-law, Mr. Knightley, specifically when she takes a young Harriet Smith under her wing, wasting no time upon setting her eyes to a suitable match for the young lady.
