Knew this book after reading "Pride & Prejudice." Well, I'm a fan of Jane Austen now :D Just like the other books that were written by her, "Sense and Sensibility" is also classy, charming, beautiful and has "something." (I can't explain this feeling)
At the first time, I felt that the story went quite flat, but pages after pages, everything changed. It made me feel so curious.
This book is interesting and cool, the emotions are deep, it has a few twists too. The book was adapted into a movie of the same name in 1995. Although it's not Jane Austen's best, but it's easier to understand and the plot is less complicated. Somehow, I prefer "Pride and Prejudice", but "Sense and Sensibility" is still magnificent. I would definitely recommend this.
Blurb~
Sisters Marianne and Elinor couldn't be more different. Marianne is desperately romantic and longing to meet the man of her dreams, while Elinor takes a far more cautious approach to love.
When the two of them move to the country with their family, miles away from London, there is little prospect of them finding anyone at all. But then they meet their new neighbours - including kind Edward Ferrers and the good-looking, dangerous Willoughby - and it seems happiness may be just round the corner after all.Things aren't always as they appear to be, though. Soon, both sisters will need to decide who to trust in their search for love: their family, their new friends, their heads - or their hearts?
Haven't watched the movie, but this is the trailer
