• Rated 0 stars

“this novel is not one of my favourites although jane austen is. It lacks the depth i used to search for in every jane austen's work.
The two sisters form a contradiction... but still not that attractive.”

• Rated 4 stars

“No one can write genteel romance novels like Jane Austen. She makes even the most chaste storyline seem hot-- underneath all that refinement and propriety simmers a contained yet perceptible passion, in both her straight-laced characters and her courtly language. While Pride and Prejudice remains my favorite Austen book, Sense and Sensibility comes a close second. Sisters Elinor and Marianne are a wonderful study in contrasts in how they deal with love and heartbreak, and their leading men Edward, Willoughby and Col. Brandon are portrayed not as perfect Prince Charmings, but flawed (and thereby more "real") individuals who complement the Dashwood sisters' personalities. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Sense and Sensibility, and I'll definitely be putting more Austen titles on my shelf.”

“Two biological sisters have different character toward life they are leading. One is very gentle and thoughtful while another is sensitive and hardly say a word.

Enjoy this, another product of Jane Austen to read....”

“I rather thought this is better than Pride and Prejudice. And I also love the movie directed by Ang Lee (exquisite detail and photography) and starring Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet.”
