Sense and Sensibility
by Jane Austen
Read by Nadia May
My rating: 4 / 5
Genre: Classic romance
For my second Jane Austen, I went with an audiobook, after feeling like it would have been better with Pride and Prejudice. Plus, I found an edition narrated by Nadia May, whose narration of Wives and Daughters I love. And though some of the characters made me want to throttle them, I enjoyed the book overall. Probably a little more than Pride and Prejudice, though I don’t think I can really compare reading one and listening to the other.
The plot of this book meandered a bit, but I don’t really remember being bored at any point. Again, that was probably helped by listening to an audiobook with great narration. I admit that I wish there had been a little more chemistry and even friendship build-up between some of the characters and maybe a little more in the way of showing their feelings and admissions of such. Overall, though, I enjoyed my time spent with this book and recommend the narration by Nadia May if you’re considering listening to the audiobook.
