I am not someone who has read the classics. If I decided to read one of Jane Austin’s books, which one would you recommend?

Sense and Sensibility! I find it much more fun than P&P.

Pride & Prejudice…I’m a school librarian who also hasn’t read many classics, horrifically 🙂 We have a Collins Classic (I think) version in the school library which has a whole heap of background information pages, a story timeline and a glossary at the bottom of each page for any ‘dated’ terms. It helped me get through it much easier and I found it quite comical.

Pride and Prejudice is the best one. Or you can cheat and watch the A&E version with Collin Firth 😉
