Time to read another Jane Austen
Plot summary
A family rents out their house because they are short on money. Anne re-falls in love with the navy captain who previously wasn't good enough for her.
Thoughts
Not as good as the other Austen's I've read (Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, Emma). But it did make me want to watch a mini-series. Too much use of the word "persuasion".
