DISCLAIMER -  I read this text as a set text for university meaning I did not pick this up for myself. It does not necessarily fit my usual reading selection so my review may be rather biased.

I have found my favourite Austen! Despite going into reading knowing the plot (I have watched the most recent film adaptation) I very much enjoyed my time reading this novel. 

Characters who made me laugh out loud with their dialogue, development in personality and a lighthearted plot that ends in happiness.

I would highly recommend reading this classic of a novel, it is a fun journey that was very enjoyable.
