	Media	Author	Review
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Sure to produce some tears and some sentiment, but no big revelations (...) There's some sense of missed opportunity (...) Fans of the book will be pleased"
		Mike Hale The New York Times	"[It] lacks the warmth and depth of feeling that make the book worth reading."
		Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"It’s gorgeous in high-def (...) but also empty and perfunctory. The performances, however, rise to the novel’s reputation."
		Kelly Lawler USA Today	"Warm, idyllic and impeccably acted (...) Overall, the four young stars have great chemistry and give the adaptation verve and life (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Jacqueline Cutler Variety	"Disappointing (...) It’s all as carefully composed as a Victorian parlor. And just as stuffy."
		Hanh Nguyen IndieWire	"Beautifully produced and faithful to the original story, the miniseries also captures the joyful spirit of the novel"
		Sonia Saraiya Vanity Fair	"While PBS’s attempt isn’t good, it’s doomed precisely because it’s a faithful adaptation"
