Book overview

I never have been in love;
it is not my way, or my nature;
and I do not think I ever shall.
Emma Woodhouse is certain of one thing: that she’s an excellent matchmaker . . . even though she’s never been in love. Emma dives into the game of finding an admirer for her newest project, Harriet Smith. But Emma quickly realizes she’s in over her head and that she might lose everything if she keeps playing. Beautifully presented for a modern teen audience, this is the must-have edition of Jane Austen’s timeless romantic satire.
