Sense and Sensibilty | Jane Austen

The raw emotion felt by the Dashwood sisters in this novel always get me. Though Marianne is a theatrical soul, her fierce defense and loyalty to her sister Elinor makes me root for their happiness every time.

Sense and Sensibilty | Jane Austen

It is not what we think or feel that makes us who we are. It is what we do. Or fail to do...

People think Emma is annoying? She's got nothing on Marianne Dashwood!
While this is not my favorite Austen, the raw human emotions that are portrayed by Elinor and Marianne get me every time.

Bronte_Chintz Never my favourite, but always a close second! I agree about Marianne also! 6y
Pamwurtzler Marianne was certainly up there with Emma. It‘s a close call for me! 6y
rustoryhuf Emma is annoying and cute. But mainly annoying. 6y

LoverofLit I love Marianne! I think it is because she is 13 in the book so I see her as wanting a dashing romantic love and that makes it easier to accept her sometimes obnoxious behavior. 6y
sammisho Marianne is 13??? I missed that... 6y
sammisho @LoverofLit She's 16?? 6y
sammisho @rustoryhuf Emma is charming! 6y
LoverofLit @sammisho I went back and looked at the descriptions in the book and apparently MARGARET is 13. But still...16 is still so young. Of course she's passionate and unbending about what kind of love she wants! 6y
sammisho @LoverofLit Yes 16 is still young...I was just surprised when you said 13. They weren't marrying them off that young! My main point was, all the hate about Emma and I found Marianne more unlikeable 6y

My gorgeous Sense and Sensibility print made out of the words of the novel along with my prettiest copy of the book. I'm about 2/3 of the way through the #snsreadalong and I forgot how much I love this one.

Cheesecake and Austen is a perfect combination, except the chocolate mousse got smashed in my to go box, and kind of looks like poo now.

I should finish the #snsreadalong this week. This one has always been a slow read for me.

This book. Still as good as I remembered it. About sisters Elinor and Marianne, and their struggels to find the right husband. #snsreadalong #senseandsensibilityreadalong #janeaustenreadalong

Leniverse Yes! Glad to see some love for S&S. It doesn't get its share of attention. 7y
KateFulfordAuthor As an author myself, Ms Austen is my “gold standard” 7y
batsy Agreed, @Leniverse ! It has slowly become one of my favourite Austens. 7y
AnneCecilie @Leniverse @batsy I've reread 3 av Austen's 6 mayor works so far this year, and so far I've really enjoyed all of them (p&p, Emma, s&s). I don't have a favorite so far. (edited) 7y
AnneCecilie @KateFulfordAuthor yes, she really sets the bar high. 7y
