Persuasion

Right now I'm reading Persuasion by Jane Austen. My sister gave me the book for Christmas, and I wasn't sure I'd enjoy it because I found Sense and Sensibility hard to get into (I did love Pride and Prejudice, though). But it turns out that I'm not completely devoid of taste, and I may even branch out to other Jane Austen contemporaries!

My thoughts: if Louisa had not hit her head when leaping from the rock wall into Captain Wentworth's arms, would they have married?!?! I think they would have! He would never have seen her stubbornness as a fault, and probably would have married the lady of inferior mind! harumph! i think less of him already.
