A Room With A View
I really liked this book by EM Forster. It was entertaining- something was happening almost all the time. (Not like a page-turner like Hunger Games or Harry Potter, but for a classic it was very entertaining). First off, it was a romance, set in Italy and England. An English girl goes to Italy and begins to find herself. It shows a type of independence of women- a woman who wants to speak her mind and be herself while still holding to the traditional culture of being a woman and staying at home. There are two men involved- one which is compared to a room, while Lucy is compared to having a view. I liked the story and the symbolism that was tied in throughout the whole book.
