Letter Critique: Emmeline!
While I read Emmeline's letter I felt like I was seriously reading part of the novel. The language and mannerisms captured the spirit of Elizabeth so well! I really liked the way Emmeline explained Elizabeth's logic while maintaining Elizabeth's independent character. The letter flowed and was very well thought out as it addressed all of the issues that Mr. Darcy brought up in his letter. The part where she addresses how she used the Wickham incident to back up her prejudices is very well written and is one of my favorite parts! The happy ending with Elizabeth asking to be able to accept his proposal was great because it is very hopeful and definitely one of the things Elizabeth might do. Towards the beginning of the letter when she addresses Elizabeth first meeting Mr. Darcy and her first impressions of him, I really like how she is incredibly descriptive. This allowed me to really get into Elizabeth's frame of mind and set the tone for the rest of the letter. So descriptive and great language! Good job (:
