Love this book!

I finished my 7 pages last night and I absolutely loved the ending. I loved every sentence of it and the descriptions of each character. I really enjoyed the closeness of the Dashwood family as the last chapter described how often their mother visited them, and how happy they all were. I cannot find the exact passage but I love the way the relationship between Edward and Colonel Brandon is described, and how well they get along and have such respect for one another.

Although tragic circumstances made the book emotionally interesting, I'm not one for tragic endings. I like things to turn out well in the end, and the characters to finish happily. LOVE this book and love the characters. When do we start P&P?

I agree Rach. I really would have liked to see more about elinor and marianne getting engaged, I wish I could have seen those scenes play out. It was kind of an abrupt end to such a detailed story. I loved it though.
