katel1970 's review for:

Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters by Ben H. Winters, Jane Austen

4.0

---

I listened to this on tape driving back from Michigan. I found it charming and at times quite funny. It really is Sense and Sensibility with sea monsters just thrown in. Marianne still finds Colonel Brandon old and boring--she's just also a bit repulsed by the tentacles on his face that he got when cursed by a sea witch. I think listening to it was the way to go. I'm not sure I would have been as drawn in if I'm been reading it.
