The story seems a bit quirky. Just some things seem a bit odd, unbelievable. The author does a good job of showing the relationships that a single victorian woman has with her family. It's all about the struggle she has choosing between the imposed obligations of her family and her own independence. I found some insights that I definitely could relate to.
