This book would have been better if it was shorter. Less than 300 pages would have sufficed.

Very enjoyable. I disliked Marianne very much, and didn't like Mrs Dashwood much either. Elinor was Ok. It was an interesting look into this world and how all was measured in money terms, as if people were goods in an apparel, with pricetags attached. How much that reflects life today! Though I disliked many of the characters, I loved how realistic it all actually was, and the ending... well, couldn't be better.
