crusoe 's review for:

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
3.5
funny lighthearted slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

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.
