"Sense And Sensibility", far from the genre, era, and type I usually read, is managing to take turns that surprise me and is indeed enjoyable. If it weren't "Oak Island" and "Star Trek Discovery" night, I wouldn't have fallen asleep nigh on the last chapters. I am nearly finished my first Jane Austen novel! As I have shared: it is the least I can do, since I have visited the entrance interior of the lady's house!

I am really making my way to the finish line now. It takes quite an author, to noticeably effect a perception change, like it occurs in life. It is possible that personages whom we thought charming and similar to us in interests, are not for us. Personages who seemed not our cup of tea, can become dear and prove profoundly loyal and moral. Even Mrs. Jennings and Elinor herself, become heroines we did not foresee.

I am past halfway finished my first Jane Austen novel! The language is dense but I like sampling how richly a competent writer can use words. Especially since this is no strutting fancy vocuabulary for ostentation but truly deriving from a woman of 1811 and how she must have spoken. Now the tale gets more interesting than I would have thought. I expected only a character study. Herein are two beaux who are cads!

I might be able to get into this. I am doing all right.

If I have gone so far as to walk inside Jane Austen's house in Bath, England seven years ago; into the gift shop room and house's foyer, at the foot of her stairs: it is time I should read her oeuvres! I didn't purchase a ticket to tour it because that is appreciated by someone who had read her. It would be my pleasure, once familiar with her. As someone intent on being an authoress, it is high time to read her.
