Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen

  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I like Sense and Sensibility less than Pride and Prejudice but more than Emma which is slightly tedious. 

In general, I love the twists and turns of Austen's novels. However, the unexpected
marrying of Lucy to robbert
was a bit much. I also think this specific novel might have benefitted from a unhappy ending for the sisters to showcase how their flaws prevent them from finding happiness.
