Mansfield Park

 #OMG, what a disappointment. The first two volumes of this book are engaging and well-written. But all of a sudden everything quickly falls apart on the third and last volume. Edmund deserved so much better, and the improbable development of Henry Crawford is so unbelievable that I have decided it could not have happened. Fanny is all the opposite she genuinely believes she is.
  Ever since March 2012 when I finished reading A Suitable Boy I have wanted to know, just like Kabir when he asked Lata, if Mansfield Park was any good. The answer is no, it is not.
  So much shaming of behaviour that people should not be ashamed of. So much prejudice. Nah, man. My recommendation: read the first two volumes, close the book, and never open it again.
