Emma Woodhouse is such a great character. She's everything, she knows she's everything. She's naive, she's kind, she's sheltered, she's witty, she's intelligent, she's lazy, she's beautiful, she's jealous and petty. She's so astonishingly good-hearted. It's Emma's world and we're all just living in it. You hate her, you love her, you love to hate her, you hate to love her. When it comes to Emma Woodhouse, we are all Mr. Knightley.

Why I am NOT an Austen Heroine:
-If I was Anne Elliot, I would have married Charles Musgrove in a heartbeat just to get away from my family
-If I was Elinor Dashwood, I would have ugly cried when Lucy Steele told me she was engaged to Edward until I couldn't breath
-If I was Fanny Price, I would have married Henry Crawford just to get away from Mansfield Park
-If I were Elizabeth Bennet, I would have probably just said yes to Darcy (highly loss adverse and very concerned about my age)
-If I were Emma, I wouldn't have lasted until Box Hill to insult Miss Bates. It would have happened years ago and far more often
-If I were Catherine Morland.... oh... at 17? Oh... yeah, girlies I would totally accuse my crush's dad of murder because I was reading too many Gothic novels...
I AM a Jane Austen Heroine

for some reason the most romantic thing i can think of is someone saying your name. the way it's supposed to be said. early in the morning. late at night. mouth full of food. a whisper. in sob. in laughter. stuttering. idk there's something about it that means more to me.

The thing about Emma, unlike P&P or Persuasion is that there’s not all this grand romantic tension between Emma and Mr. Knightly. They don’t stare lustfully at one another across the room or bicker and ache for one each other. In fact, 90% of the book is all Emma wreaking havoc in the neighborhood with her schemes and meddling. And Mr. Knightly is just sitting in an armchair in the corner, watching her wreck people’s lives, smiling ruefully and going ‘I can’t believe I’m in love with this dork.’
