Sense & Sensibility

Oh it was delightful! I finished it wednesday night. Not as good as P&P but delightful in deed! I also just purchased the A&E special on it to watch (hopefully it comes today or tomorrow?).

I really loved a lot of the book, the development of the characters was great, I think part of what set it below P&P is that the building of the male characters was very light, it was very hard to get excited about them when there was so much doubt. With P&P there was such a buildup with Mr. Darcy, knowing so well the struggles both he and Eliz. went through. That sets it apart.

But I thoroughly enjoyed S&S and I'm very glad to have finally gotten to read it. I can't wait to watch it too!

Back to "We need to talk about kevin" now!
