SENSE AND SENSIBILITY.


The plots are two sisters; Elionor and Marianne Dashwood, that are living with their little sister Margaret, their parents until their father died. After the death of their father, the family states passes to John Dashwood, a half-brother of Elionor and Marianne. John Dashwood doesn’t pass anything to Elionor, Marianne, Margaret and Mrs Dashwood.

Dashwood family must change their house and they go to Devonshire, ‘cause a distant relative of Mrs. Dashwood, Sir John Middleton, invites the family to live in a cottage on his propriety.
When the family moved to Devonshire, Elionor felt in love with Edward Ferrars, the brother of Fanny Dashwood, and Marianne felt in love with John Willoughby, the man who saved her from an accident in the middle of the forest when it was raining. Willoughby after to rescue Marianne, everyday goes to her home to see her, and they become really good friends.

Suddenly, Willoughby must go to London, and he left Marianne in Devonshire, and she was really sad.
Edward Ferrars went to visit the family in Devonshire and Elionor was worried because he wasn’t like before. After this visit, Lucy Steele told to Elionor that since four years before, she was engaged with Edward, and the world falls on Elionor.
Elionor and Marianne with their broken heart went to London to pass the winter. Marianne sends letters to Willoughby, and later, Willoughby send a letter to Marianne saying that he’s engaged with Mrs. Grey.

Marianne is sad, and she goes to walk under the rain, and she gets ill. When Willoughby knows it he goes to search Marianne’s mother, and he says to Elionor that he’s stilling loving Marianne.
The sisters return to Devonshire, and Elionor was really bad, because Edward Ferrars get married with Lucy, but later Lucy said to Elionor that she doesn’t get married with Edward. She gets married with Robert, his brother.
Lucy get married with Edward Ferrars, and Marianne get married with Colonel Brandon, a really good friend of their relative John Middleton.

This is the summary that I did for "study" my read of the third term.
When I started to read the book I didn't like it, 'cause there were a lot of characters and remember all of them was really difficult, but later, when I continued reading, I started to like the book, 'cause I started to understand all the moments of the story. On the other hand, there is a lot of "difficult" vocabulary in this book, so I must read the book with the diccionary next to me.
Apart from these points, I liked the book, 'cause it's a love story, and normally, when I see films or when I read books about love stories I like them.
When I did a little reflection about the book, I saw that I can identify with one of the characters of the story. This character is Elionor, the eldest sister. She represents the sensibility, and I think that I'm really sensibility, 'cause when it's something bad on me I close myself and I keep my emotions inside me.
If I must choose one moment in the story, I will choose the moment that Elionor gets married with Edward Ferrars, 'cause Edward it's the man who Elionor all the whole story was in love, so I think that it's an emotive moment:)

In conclusion, if someone wants to read this book I will recomend it to him, 'cause it have a good ending, and sometimes stories that finish good are beautiful for read, or not?:)

Well, now you know a little bit more about my book and how I liked it.
See you*
