Oh where do I begin with poor Fanny, I wish I could say something positive for the sake of this post, and I will really try, because there are, no doubt, others who actually love her and consider her the best, so I'll do my best to keep a middle-ground. Why is she my least? I don't find there to be anything at all likeable about her. She was and continued to be treated as being the "other relative" of the Bertram family and that sort of stuck throughout the novel. She is treated more like a companion than an actual blood relative, to do housework and tasks that nobody else wants to do, like items from the poor basket, or running back and forth from Aunt Norris's house. She is not at all adventurous or as confrontational nor as witty as, say, Elizabeth Bennet. Nor does she have the serene calmness of, say, Elinore Dashwood.
