P&P is good.
Persuasion is my personal favorite, though.

Are you reading it now/have you read it before? How did/are you enjoying it?

It was my first read and I've just finished it.

I joked to some friends that I wasn't very suuuure about this book.
No fantasy? No deaths? No scientific discoveries? Timetravel? Nada?
It's just about... people? Getting married etc?
Isn't that what the epilogues are for?

Heh. Well, ummm. I guess that wasn't entirely incorrect, given how much is summed in the last chapter of 4 pages!

And yes, I enjoyed it. :)

Meh. Most of the books you like that I'm aware of are also about vocational search and moral dilemmas. I was pretty sure you'd like it.

Indeed.
