By far the most "friendly" of Austen's books, it's also very subtle in its wit, much more so than Pride and Prejudice. It's largely a social comedy, and the characters are so like some of the people we all know (for instance, we all know a hypochondriac) that it's very easy to relate to, making it one of those truly rare accessible to everyone period works.
