I love Jane Austen stories. I have watched all the movies, but I've never read any of her books! So, I was excited to get to read Sense and Sensibility. This book is part of Bethany House's Insight Editions. These editions include extra tid-bits of information in the margins. These notes included historical and cultural details and facts about Jane Austen's life. While I enjoyed reading the story, I really enjoyed all these extra notes.
Sense and Sensibility revolves around the main characters, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood. When their father dies, the family estate passes on to the half-brother John. This leaves the the Dashwood sisters, their mom and younger sister will little money and no home. They move to a new cottage on a distant relatives property. The story revolves around the two sisters, with opposite personalities, struggle to find love.
This book was sent to me by Bethany House Publishers as part of their book review blogger program. I received a free copy of this book to review.
