a month of Austen

I realized a few months ago that I can’t remember the last time I read a Jane Austen novel. I read and reread all six of her completed books constantly in high school and early college and I miss their wit.  So I have decided that during the month of October I will reread each book, beginning with Mansfield Park.

I was going to start with Persuasion, but I haven’t been able to find it just yet.  Do you have a favorite Austen book?

  1. I suppose that it’s a bit cliché to say “Pride and Prejudice”, so I won’t. My favourite is “Sense and Sensibility”. :-) Enjoy your reading!

    It’s not too cliché, Pride and Prejudice is a lovely book. Emma is my personal favorite ♥

  3. I really like Sense and Sensibility too!
    Now that autumn is here and the nights are longer, I am starting to think more about period books and movies…
    By the way, you may like the new “Emma” series that has just started on BBC One in the UK!
