55. Emma by Jane Austen I did not enjoy Sense and Sensibility when I read it earlier this year, so I wasn't expecting to like Emma. I loved it! I especially liked seeing Emma grow up and mature, and the secondary characters (Mr. Woodhouse, Miss Bates, etc.).

I've read 61 from the list so far this year. My favorites (in no particular order) were: Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen Lady Chatterley's Lover by D. H. Lawrence Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Choderlos de Laclos Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov (re-read) The Sea by John Banville Reg ...

You can't go wrong with Persuasion, Pride and Prejudice or Sense and Sensibility. I am yet to read Mansfield Park myself! And Northanger Abbey is silly fun. Not her best, but amusing stuff. Oh dear. Did I just recommend them all?? I'm still going slowly on London Orbital. Finding ...

... but I studied it at uni with a fabulous professor. I know a lot of people don't like that one. Personally I really like Sense and Sensibility. But if you're well-read in the Gothic, I'd say go ahead with Northanger Abbey. It's quite charming, but Austen was very young and sheltered when ...

... not her best work. Pride and Prejudice is of course the best known and most-widely loved. I personally am partial to Sense and Sensibility. I think Mansfield Park is her masterpiece, but it's difficult, and the protagonist is difficult to like. It's the longest and most complex, so ...

... I even broke my no TV/movie adaptations and audio books rule for them. But I've never felt the urge to re-read Emma or Sense and Sensibility. I didn't hate or love these two. I just felt nothing. But now that you say that you like Emma better the second time around, I'm thinking maybe I'll ...

I read my 100th last year and made sure it was a goodie--in my case, Sense and Sensibility. My 150th book won't be up for a year or so, but, yeah, I'll probably make it a memorable one too. Completely meaningless, I know, but it's fun to do that.

My list: January: fiction: Ysabel by Guy Gavriel Kay (love every single one of his) February: fiction: Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen nonfiction: The Seven Storey Mountain by Thomas Merton March: fiction: Going Postal by Terry Pratchett nonfiction: That Went Well by Terrel ...

Hi, Wookie - Glad that you enjoyed Sense and Sensibility so much after the "junk food" diet of the previous book. Sometimes dystopia just doesn't do it for me either, so I will pass on Blindness also, and plan to enjoy something from the glittering wealth of my shelves here at home that ...

... Girl on Legare Street for review later this month. I'm also nearing the end of both Shelf Discovery and the audio of Sense and Sensibility. I'm thinking about starting Cranioklepty tonight, but I think I need to finish Shelf Discovery first.

... night so as to catch up to the group read. I'm also still picking up Shelf Discovery here and there and listening to Sense and Sensibility in preparation to read Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters.

I read seven books in the last week, so I now have 52 books read, 29 to go. The books I read in the past week are: Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen Ethan of Athos by Lois McMaster Bujold Firedrake's Eye by Patricia Finney The Ladies of Missalonghi by Colleen McCullou ...

... For those who are reading them, it's their own choice. To each his/her own. For me the original Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility are good enough, thank you very much!

11-4-09 #38 Sense and Sensiblity Jane Austen 4 stars In typical Austen style, Sense and Sensibility begins with numerous characters being thrown out at the reader and many names and connections need to be digested and remembered. Somehow in all of the near confusion characters named Elino ...

I did't like Sense and Sensibility, but do like Pride and Prejudice. I think it will be a one hit wonder, I like the novelty but that's as far as it swings for me.

I'm currently in England with Sense and Sensibility, and occasionally in New Orleans with Ignatius J Reilly in A Confederacy of Dunces.

Just finished The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and now I'm on to Sense and Sensibility. It's my third attempt to read it this year, and I hope I don't get interrupted this time. I think it will make a nice holiday read.

I finished The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and have picked up Sense and Sensibility for the third time this year. Every time I start it, something more important makes me abandon it. Maybe this time I'll get to finish it. Whichever 1001 book I end up reading, it will be my 100th from the list.

I guess I'll have to be the loner when I say, though I love shamelessly all of her novels, my least favorite is Sense and Sensibility. This could be, however, that I read it a long time ago and need to give it another go. I probably didn't appreciate Austen's wit and humor then, so I admit, I ...

I've always loved the differences between Elinor and Marianne from Austen's Sense and Sensibility. I imagine that Elinor is an SJ and Marianne is an NF. Also, I'm currently reading Chocolat. I'm certain that Anouk is an NF. Vianne is quite obviously an SP. All food for thought!

Its not particularly fast-moving and, really, Edward has got to be the most unappealing love interest to come along in a while.

... Menagerie. Tess of the D'Urbervilles was terribly depressing but very true. The Message in Black Boy pissed me off and A Raison in the Sun was pointless. But nevertheless I am glad I read them.

Right now I'm reading Emma and absolutely loving it. One of my favourite movies of all time is Sense and Sensibility (screenplay by Emma Thompson and starring herself and Kate Winslet). I've seen it about 10 or 11 times. I think seeing the movie first spoiled the book a bit for me, as it would I ...

The first book I read by Jane Austen was Pride and Prejudice, and I just finished Sense and Sensibility yesterday. I think I like "Pride and Prejudice" best of these two. In some ways, the two books reminded me of each other. However, there were times in "Sense and Sensibility" when I was ...

I bought Mansfield Park last month, took a look at its length, and choose to put it off till my spring break. I'm now in Sense and Sensibility, which for me, is a second attempt. (The first time was January of 2006, when I tried to read it while waiting for my sister in a dentist waiting room. ...

... and I think the author does a great job on the time period. I would also second anything by Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility in addition to P&P. I've heard great things about Secret History of the Pink Carnation by Lauren Willig, but it's still in my to be read ...

#26 and 27, I agree with you in Pride and Prejudice being my favourite, followed by Sense and Sensibility. After these two, I really could not say which one I prefer....

... and the whole Little House series is ingrained of course. Classic literature gets re-read every couple of years, generally (Sense and Sensibility, for instance, was brought out and dusted down this year, 2004, 2001, 1998...). And I'll re-read a series if a new book suggests it (although not, ...

... have all Jane Austen's works, but Emma's not my favourite. The character is too full of herself, without justification. Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice were more fun. I confess to reading Anna Karenina in English. You may need to watch out for the character names; each ...

The consensus is that individual works should not be combined with anthologies or collections. A copy of Sense and Sensibility is not the same a volume that also contains Persuasion and Lady Susan. Also, be careful when combining "Selected works", "collected works" and the like to ...

Refreshing to see many share my dislike for Hemingway. And while I quite liked Pride and prejudice, Sense and sensibility seemed really shallow and silly. Anyway, I don't like not liking classics. Usually I think there's a reason for these books to have been there for so long, and I feel ...

... have the same authorial distance of the other works. Anne's emotions seem stronger, more open than in the earlier works. Sense and Sensibility is an enjoyable novel in the same way as P&P although probably not quite as good. Northanger Abbey is a beginner's work, not really up to the later ...

... from yours. Those who have read - or watched - Bridget Jones's Diary before P&P and those who have read - or watched - Sense and Sensibility before it will make different readings. Multitudes of meanings. "Let's talk about T.S. Eliot's influence on Shakespeare." "Surely the ...

1. Pride and Prejudice 2. Sense and Sensibility Tied Emma P & P characters because of tension, as to class, society rules. S & S the same but slightly less so, and stands apart nicely from Emma which was equally strong A&E's P&P was probably the best it could get. Bride & Prejudice ...

... largely on account of having seen & loved the BBC version so many times. In the second tier I'd place Persuasion and Sense and Sensibility. I think her weakest novels are Mansfield Park and Northanger Abbey. Though still brilliant, Mansfield Park doesn't quite have the lightness ...

Sense and Sensibility, Northanger Abbey, Emma, in that order, I think. Least favourite: Persuasion. I disliked Mansfield Park when studying it (my lecturer and I were the only two who admitted to detesting Fanny Price; everyone else adored her), but can just about stand it now. Scandalo ...

... I think. When I first started reading Jane Austen in my teens it was Northanger Abbey, and then for a while it was Sense and Sensibility, but now it's Emma. As I've grown older I've come to appreciate Mansfield Park more. I used to find it very heavy going.

I'll have to say Pride and Prejudice is my favorite, and I did rather enjoy Emma. I think Sense and Sensibility is my second favorite.

... Park ) but even those I've gained a further appreciation for with time. Most people don't rank as highly but I love Sense and Sensibility just because I love Marianne so much.
