There are so many varieties of Jane Austen fans ~

But the true merit of reading Jane has been verified

while they're reading a Jane Austen novel. 
The fMRI images suggest that literary reading provides
 "a truly valuable exercise of people's brains."

soooo...

Sense and Sensibility
with good sized print for 'easy on the eyes' reading !

  1. Having read several of her books and loved them, I can believe they execise the brain. I find that I can't speed read them and by slowing down I enjoy them so much more.
    Been following your blog for a while and love it.

  4. Good for my brain and my soul? Sounds like my friend Karen's new book, "Booked: literature in the soul of me," by Dr. Karen Swallow Prior.

    Yes, please consider me entered! :)

  5. Sense & Sensibility is perhaps the only Austen novel I haven't read. I only saw the Masterpiece Theatre production! Please accept my entry.
