      This was a cute little book, chock full of "advice" from Jane Austen (in the form of her writings, both fictional and her letters) on all matters pertaining to "love and romance". This includes, engagements, compatibility, men and women in love and even unrequited love.

      However, as much as I enjoyed this little walk down a "literature" memory lane, seeing as how I have read most of Austen's works, I would not pay $12.95 for the book, but I would recommend reading it for please and to improve one's good humor.

      A selection of my favorite quotes:

      "A woman is not to marry a man merely because she is asked."
      -Emma Woodhouse (from "Emma") on Engagements-

      "My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you."
      -Fitzwilliam Darcy (from "Pride and Prejudice") on Love Declarations-

      "Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance."
      -Charlotte Lucas (from "Pride and Prejudice") on Happily Ever After-

      "It is settled between us already, that we are to be the happiest couple in the world."
      -Elizabeth Bennet(from "Pride and Prejudice") on Happily Every After-
