Here is a book review that we just got from a person who would like to be known as Emmy~
Mansfield Park by Jane Austen
I love this book! It is about a young girl named Fanny Price, who is brought to live with her Uncle and Aunt; Sir Thomas and Lady Bertram. Fanny is a shy girl, and since she has no money at all, neither her family (Mr. and Mrs. Price), some of her rich relatives are very indifferent to her and her situation (Mostly Mrs. Norris), and no one seems to really take care of her of notice her except her cousin Edmund. The story continues to show that patience, obedience and virtue will always win out in the end. I don't want to give away the whole story, but follow Fanny and her stern and sometimes silly family and friends as she follows, teaches and grows into a beautiful young women!

I think this was a very good review, I have never read the book myself. I have listened to part of it, and watched the BBC movie, so I know part of the story. I am more motivated to read it now.
