Hi! I just got Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma (I saw a beautiful edition of Emma on your blog and I had to get it!). I know that she is one of your favourite authors so I was wondering if you'd read all of her books and which are your favourites and why?

Hey! I actually haven’t read Persuasion and I’m currently re-reading Sense and Sensibility. I think they’re beautifully written and full of charm and amazing heroines. I’d recommend starting with Pride and Prejudice. It’s my favourite by far. I love the characters, Austen’s wit, the story and the romance.

Hi, you're blog is amazing! Anyways, I have a question. I tried reading the book "Emma" by Jane Austen, and for some reason, although I am an avid reader, I just couldn't understand the book! The problem is, I would really like to read a classic book. Do you, by any chance, have a suggestion of an easier to understand and less complicating classic novel? Thank you!

I think my post on “first classics” will help! [x] Little Women or To Kill A Mockingbird are good picks. I also think that Pride & Prejudice is a bit easier to tackle than Emma.

"In approved places, every story serves a purpose. But forbidden books are so much more. Some of them are webs; you can feel your way along their threads, but just barely, into strange and dark corners. Some of them are balloons bobbing up through the sky: totally self contained, and unreachable, but beautiful to watch.
And some of them-the best ones-are doors."

— Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium
