Catherine is a lady after my own heart. She is a heroine in training who is obsessed with her books while her parents worry about her finding a husband. This is a story of love, friendships, and social intricacies. Never having left her home, she must navigate the adventure of a lifetime and set off to become a true heroine. 

I found myself laughing and smiling during this read. Maybe it's one of my favorite Jane Austen books, too.
