I prefer Jane Austin though Mansfield Park was a little difficult to read to the end, I enjoyed Persuaion. And of course Pride and Prejudice was also great. Sense and Sensibility, I read many years after I had read her other books and I'm not sure if I liked it or not.

There was another film about her titled Becoming Jane that was really disappointing. Miss Austen Regrets is the one to see.Based on Jane Austen's actual letters and diaries, this drama unravels the secrets of this elusive woman. Jane is nearing her forties and has never married. To her niece, Fanny Knight Jane is a favorite aunt who offers the wisdom and knowledge that will help her in her own search for a happy marriage. But surely the woman so capable of writing love on the page must have experienced love herself?

Sense and Sensibility is a wonderful book, but not, perhaps, the easiest to get into. I recommend starting with Pride and Prejudice or Persuasion.

1. Pride and Prejudice (my second favorite book of hers, it is very easy to get into and highly entertaining)
2. Northanger Abbey (very funny and on the easy side)
3. Sense and Sensibility (gets a bit harder but pleasant overall)
4. Emma (I enjoyed it more the second time I read it, once I was in on all the jokes)
5. Mansfield Park (this one was the hardest for me)
6. Persuasion (my personal favorite)
As a bonus, "Lady Susan" can be read after Mansfield Park to add some levity and fun after such a long book.
