Writing Style: I've read a few English books, but this one wasn't very easy to read for me. A lot of diaglogues were included but also description texts. I would have prefered more dialogues. So it wasn't really easy and fast for me to read.
Characters: The narrator isn't unsympathetic, we don't get to know his name. Mrs. Nettlepoint isn't unsympathetic as well. I cannot like Jasper Nettlepoint. Grace Mavis is strange for me. All in all I didn't really liked one or can identify with one.
Content: I don't really know what to say, but it wasn't very interesting for me and I waited for something to happen. The ulterior motive is the gossip and to what it causes. It was tedious and not very entertaining. That is why I didn't like it a lot, but it is a short book, so you can read it in a short time.
