I really appreciate how authors incorporate wisdom through their characters. This quote comes from Sense and Sensibility, the next Austen book I intend to read. (I'm a new fan.)

Love it. I think Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen book I read.
ReplyDeleteI just finished reading Persuasion (and loved it). I think Jane Austen is an author I've grown into it. As a younger reader, I just didn't click with her writing (although I love the stories and the BBC movies) but more recently I've found myself delighted with her books. I've been both amused and challenged and have found them very fun. I sort of feel relieved about this because I almost didn't feel like a certified female reader without being able to say that I really enjoy reading Jane Austen! :D
