Pride and Prejudice (Penguin Classics)
Jane Austen
Penguin Books, 2002
Harlequin Books Ain't Got Nothing on This
From time to time I read a critical opinion on Pride and Prejudice that, while acknowledging its excellence, wonders why Jane Austen could not in her genius provide some more gravitas. It's rather more observant and intelligent than your run-of-the-mill romance, to be ...

Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters
Jane Austen
Quirk Books, 2009
Just Plain Fun!
Quirk Classics has done it again! I absolutely adored "Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters"! I wondered if the blend of classic with humor would not be as good this time around, but it was even better than "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies". I found that the ...

Persuasion
Jane Austen
CreateSpace, 2008
My favorite Austen novel.
The writing in this novel really sets the stage for modern writing. It builds and builds and builds until you can't stand it any longer and the climax of the story happens at the end. Writing perfection and her best novel, even if Pride and Prejudice is her ...

Pride and Prejudice (Oxford World's Classics)
Jane Austen, Fiona Stafford
Oxford University Press, USA, 2008
A Classic novel worthy of high praise
Any reader of the novel Pride and Prejudice, be it novice or veteran, has certain expectations and apprehensions based on its incredible popularity and renown. The same can be said for the media, whose recent over-use of its famous opening line, `It is a truth ...

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Classic Regency Romance - Now with Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!
Jane Austen, Seth Grahame-Smith
Quirk Books, 2009
Laughed my head off through the first three chapters...
I LOVE anything truly Jane Austen (not the fan fict retelling--ick!), and couldn't help myself in buying this book. I literally laughed out loud since most of the words are Miss Austen's but with a ridiculous zombie subplot thrown in. Such a crazy and unlikely ...

Northanger Abbey (Vintage Classics)
Jane Austen
Vintage, 2007
A delightful satire
Jane Austen's first novel is a delightful and witty satire of gothic literature, and is a paradigm of both her future genius and current youthful exuberance. While I would argue that Austen by no means condemns the genre itself nor the reading of it, she does artfully ...

Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen
HarperTeen, 2009
It is a truth universally acknowledged...
"Pride and Prejudice" is undoubtedly one of the most beloved classic novels in history -- it's had countless adaptations, sequels and homages lavished on it over the years.
And Jane Austen's grand opus is still beloved for a good reason. While it's rather stuffily ...

Northanger Abbey (Penguin Classics)
Jane Austen
Penguin Classics, 2003
Loved it! One of Jane Austen's finest novels.
I recently read Jane Austen's Mansfield Park and thought it was a little disappointing and full of annoying characters. Pride & Prejudice will always be my favorite, but I found Northanger Abbey superior to almost all of Jane Austen's novels, except P&P and ...
