Sense and SensibilitySense and Sensibility

by Jane Austen
Original Publication: 1811

I honestly don’t know what to say about this, my first exposure to Jane Austen (other than it’s far overdue).

I don’t see the appeal, I don’t see why this one has endured. That’s not to say I hated it. It’s just that I don’t get it. Yes, there were amusing turns of phrases here and there, and I can see where it might be seen as a template for romantic comedies since then. But..meh.
