Jane Austen Rankings

Okay,if your a Jane Austen fan, please chime in! If your not a Jane Austen fan, then you probably want to stop reading now.

My final ranking of her books:
1. Persuasion. I really liked all her books, but this is the only one that I immediately wanted to just flip back to the front and start reading all over again.
2. Pride & Prejudice
3. Sense and Sensibility
4. Emma
5. Mansfield Park
6. Northanger Abbey
7. Lady Susan

1. Pride and Prejudice (1995)
2. Persuasion (2007)
3. Northanger Abbey (2007)
4. Sense and Sensibility (2008)

I've never picked up any of her work, but I will have to. So I should start with Persuasion?

Kelli,
Persuasion would be a great way to be introduced to Jane Austen :)

Although, I have to admit that I was glad I read it last because I think all the others would of felt a little disappointing after it.

A few years ago I was big into Jane Austen. Although I haven't re read one in a few years. I don't know if I could rank them.
