I teach this title, so I was glad to see this nicely designed edition. I had hoped that there might be more illustrations in the text, but it works well as it is. I hope this modern cover can attract new readers to this classic.

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for a digital ARC. My opinions are entirely my own.

Once again, I found myself in love with Jane Austen's writing, with the characters she created, with the period she described.

Catherine is the ultimate sweetheart, and Mr Tilney is one of the best things that have ever happened to me.

I'm in love with this novel, and Jane assured me once more that my love and adoration for her is completely justified.
