Persuasion is my favorite of all of Austen's works. She expertly infuses humor, social critique, and feminism into a heart-warming love story. This is a treasured book that I will always return to to reread!

Before chick-lit became a genre, Jane Austen was letting us know the inner workings of the female mind when it comes to developing relationships. And she did it better than most as well.
