My Reading Journal 4 G組 吳中翔

I finished the book "EMMA". It is written by Jane Austen.
The story of EMMA is talking about the young woman, Emma's life and her love. Emma is beautiful and rich, but her mother died when she was very young. She lived with her father Mr. Woodhouse and sister Isabella. They lived in Highbury where is near London. After her sister got married and lived with her husband in London. Only Emma and her father lived together. Mr.Woodhouse hoped that Emma not to get marry. If she get marry, he will be very lonely.
Emma didn't want get marry, either. She has never thought of getting married herself. Instead, she amused herself by trying to arrange marriages between her friends and neighbors. But Emma made a lot of mistakes and cause more problems than happy marriages. For example, she tried to match her friend Harriet and Mr. Elton. She thought that they like each other secretly in their own mind. But in fact, whom Mr. Elton loved is Emma, not Harriet. When Mr.Elton told Emma that he loved her, Emma felt very unhappy and sad. She didn't like Mr. Elton, and she was sure that Harriet will be heartbroken. Finally, she refused Mr.Elton and talked the true to Harriet. Emma was so busy trying to arrange other people's lives. Then she almost lost her own chance of love.
Day by day, Emma met more and more people in her life. She began trying to find her true love. Frank was her first love. He was very kind and humorous. Emma always hoped she can walking with him and talking with him all the time. But she found that Frank didn't loved her, he loved Jane the person that Emma didn't like a little bit. When she felt very sad, she also found that Mr. Knightley loved her. Emma was surprised that Mr. Knightley liked her. She thought he was her friend. However, she finally knew that Mr. Knightley was her Mr. Right. In the end of the story, they got married and lived with Emma's father in Highbury.
This story is talking about love. I think it's main idea is that we don't need to arrange our or other's love so prepensely. Sometimes, maybe you will find your Mr.or Miss Right is just behind you.
