The Annotated Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
3.0
An excellent novel, as indeed all of Jane Austen's are! But my least favorite. I think I like Marianne the least of the heroines. I just had not very much sympathy with most of the characters... Edward is basically a cardboard cutout. Elinor is an island of good sense surrounded by inferior connections deficient in good sense, good manners, or both. Ugh. Too much of it.
That being said, I adore Mrs. Jenkins and wish I could spend time with her. Good natured, kind, positive, generous, loving. Her manners were those of the previous century, but she was not undeserving of respect for their sake.
