ჯეინ ოსტინის ნებისმიერი წიგნი:
მთავარი გმირი არის თვინიერი, ჭკვიანი, კეთილგონიერი, საიმედო ქალიშვილი (სადღაც,18-დან 28 წლამდე).
მთავარი გმირს ჰყავს მინიმუმ ერთი და.
მთავარი გმირი არ ბრწყინავს სილამაზით (მას ყოველთვის ჩრდილავს მისი რომელიმე და).

Eight years later, circumstances bring them together again. Anne’s beauty has faded, she is overlooked by almost everyone and her opinions don’t count with her father and sister. Wentworth, on the other hand, has made a name and fortune for himself in the naval services and looks as good as ever. Whe ...more

This was long overdue for a re-read because I didn't remember the story at all! I love the prolonged romance and the classic Janeite villain. ...more
