4.0

This is a classic Jane Austen book with all the aspects we know and love: dynamic characters, town gossip, talk of class, rank, and monetary affairs, and an emphasis on beauty, health, and perception. The ending was great, as was the gossip. The letters that revealed important information about the characters were great, as was the story itself. It is a true classic through and through.
