"A Room with a View" is a novel not only about the journey to find true love, but also about the difficult decisions a person is faced with when they must decide to either listen to the expectations of others, or their own heart. It is a good book because the reader can relate to the characters. However, there is quite a bit of philosophy, which makes it hard to understand and it is written in nineteenth century style. I had to reread some of the paragraphs to grasp their meaning. Overall, "A Room with a View" is a good novel to read, but the language makes it a lengthy and difficult book to understand.
