Notes:
- Too much to say about this that wouldn't fit but my favourite thing about this book was how real and tangible the characters all felt to me, and how captivated and invested I was in their lives.
- Anna and Vronksy's relationship was so interesting to read — the passion shifting to destruction, the complexity of Anna being a woman stuck in a system that views her and the role of wives overall in an oppressive way, the fact of her infidelity. Makes her a fascinating character even if she is not a likeable one necessarily.
- Levin and Kitty's slowburn was definitely my favourite plotline though of the whole book

and the scene where they write to each other on the table and when he comes to propose! I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest I love them :')

- Yes, there are a lot of pages dedicated to 1860s Russian agricultural practices. It's not too bad though.
