I love Persuasion as much as I love Pride and Prejudice. The book is so much underrated. Jane Austen is so good when it comes to writing

I haven't read it in a while, but I do recall it being a slow start.I feel like all of Jane Austen's books have a slow start. Did you ever finish it?

[Ma Leonarda Castañares]

Oh, how I wish to have a physical copy of this book. I want to annotate it so bad.

[Liza Chulukhadze]

Exactly! One of my favourite books! I love both so much and yes, Darcy and Elizabeth were just the right fit in my opinion. I repeatedly read the chapter where Darcy opens up about his feelings towards Elizabeth.

The book isn't bad but the movie i watched is better more.

[Tommy Mayengbam]

I read it years back. If my memory serves me right, it's not as captivating as "Pride and Prejudice," "Northanger Abbey," or "Emma."

[Andrew Darlington]

I have not read it yet.

I’m a new Jane Austen fan, and I really appreciate all the insight in this discussion! I’ve been hearing lots of good things about Northanger Abbey, so I think that will be the next book of hers that I read. I think I will wait to read Persuasion until I’ve gotten a few more Jabe Austen novels under my belt

Anne Elliot, a woman persuaded to break off her engagement with Captain Wentworth due to his lack of fortune. Years later, they meet again, and Anne must navigate lingering feelings and social pressures to find happiness. What an interesting book. Pride and Prejudice is still my favorite though.
