Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor’s warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love—and its threatened loss—the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.
After reading this book I fully understand the hype with Jane Austen because this book was amazing and I found myself enjoying this book much more than I’ve expected.
The plot here is amazing. But I found myself not carrying for the romances in this book. But it was super fun reading this book and seeing where the plot in this book takes us. The plot in this book follows two teenager girls and their romances which I found very boring.
The writing style was super old school but at the same time very fun and enjoyable.
The characters here were okay but I wasn’t the biggest fan of all the characters here. I really didn’t care for them but I didn’t mind them at the same time. Which is a weird combination.
This book would have been one of my favourite books if I didn’t focus so much on romances and the same thing goes to the characters in this book.
I Give This Book 4 / 5
