I adore Jane Austen, and the fact that Pride and Prejudice was the first long novel that I was able to read in English (I speak Spanish) made it very close to my heart since it was huge for me at that and obviously because is super awesome too, Sense and Sensibility is my second favorite.
btw you guys are awesome!

I read Jane Austen's History of England at the British Library one day. THE SASS is right. She had more wit in her little finger at that age than most people have in their whole lives.

Love Jane Austen! I love all of her books but I would say my favorite is Persuasion.

Persuasion and Northangar Abbey are my favs. That letter from Wentworth! And Henry Tilney is just one of the best.

i already said that but im watching your videos all morning non stop and this i all times my favorites because jane austen is my heroine. i long to be a writer and sense and sensibility was too amazing to read ( as well as her other works) but what i most love about her is her story and how she always stayed true to herself. thank u for doing this !!!

Gah, you two are the cutest, and it is so silly to me that you two are so geographically far away from me.
