In classic Jane Austen fashion, this story follows young women who are navigating the complex field of relationships and fortune.

Anyone who likes Austen, or is looking to read more classics.

The humor.

I don't think this was (intentionally) more humorous than any of Austen's other works, but there was something about the focus of the story (particularly toward the end) that seemed to be less serious than some of her other works.

Although I liked where the story ended up (particularly the last line) the road to get there was not paced the best in my opinion.

Is one of the most renowned novelists, and has an eloquent writing style all of her own. I think the way she writes thing often makes up for the repeating themes and plot points across her body of work.

The style, themes, and characters are all worth experiencing, particularly if you're already a fan of Jane Austen.
