Jane Austen

4.11 AVERAGE


Oh, I love Ann (but I fear that I am Mary). I usually like to be a nonconformist, but I have to agree with popular opinion: Jane Austen rocks. She weaves together many plots and characters in this tale of a love affair lost and regained, but with emphasis in all the right places. I never felt lost. I felt transported because of the detail. Her insight into people's manners and motives is uncanny. What an observer / critic of the human condition. Jane, I love you! Thank you for giving us these wonderful novels. You inspire me to be more discerning and compassionate.
