Great Historical Fiction
Great historical fiction, especially if you enjoy dysfunctional families. I love the ironic tone the narrator takes towards the Forsytes, and was pleased to see that some characters came around and learned their lessons... and some did not. A few minor typos, but a pretty readable Kindle edition.

It was a good book.
The story was interesting for it's time in history. It was a bit too wordy for my tastes. A sentence with 20 words when 5 would work. Of course it does need a lot of words to describe that era.

Not too bad
It was not a great book but good enough to like. Sometimes the language was a little hard to grasp since it was written in the old style. I would recommend reading it.

The Man of Property
The author wrote in a disorganized manner that leaves the reader wondering who was speaking and the point to be made. It did not grasp my interest in the beginning though improved later. It was an easy book to put down and the end was disappointing.

Property and Propriety
Enjoyable story of an up-and-coming English family and how greed, conformity and false morality can destroy lives.

Boring read.
Boring read. Didn't finish because of stilted language.
