RE: The Forgotten Brontë: Why Agnes Grey Deserves Your Attention | Review (Eng/Esp)

in Hive Book Clublast month

I haven't Agnes Grey yet but the way you presented it makes me feel like I've been missing out on something quietly powerful.

You really captured the essence of Anne Brontë voice -subtle but sharp

The way you compared her work to her sisters' was thoughtful and respectful not competitive. That part about her writing feels like a whisper amid shouts? Beautifully put. You've got a real gift for thoughtful reviews 😌💛

Let me tell you how this book found me, rather than the other way around. In my country, Cuba, it hasn’t been published—I found it in a rare and used bookstore, meaning I bought it secondhand from someone who no longer wanted it... For me, it was like discovering a treasure. It's a beautiful edition, and its prologue includes a detailed account of the lives of the three sisters. I’ve always been fascinated by their work, which is perhaps why I pour so much heart into this review.

Thank you so much for stopping by and reading me. 🙏🏻

That's such a beautiful way to find a book -it really does feel like it chose you. There's something magical about secondhand finds especially when they come with a bit of history.

I can see now why your review had so much heart in it -it wasn't just about the story but also your connection to it 📚😊
