I really enjoyed Evelina as a character! Genuinely #relatable with her earnest social awkwardness, but also endearing. An interesting contrast to Pamela, actually. I did not enjoy the interminable Captain Mirvin sequences, though they did make me think of Simon Dickie's work on cruelty & humour in the 18thC; I can only assume he was meant as comic relief...? The plot took a while to pick up but did manage to have a few interesting turns at the end. Overall I'm very glad to have finally read some of Burney's work!
