I have read some of Jane Austen's books. I have read pride and prejudice and I am in Persuasion right now. I have watched all of the movies that her novels were made into. For my winter break I took a study abroad class that was Jane Austen's England. We went pretty much every where she lived and she ever wrote about. I think that that trip was a really great experience and made me love Jane Austen even more.

I've read Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Persuasion, Northanger Abbey, Lady Susan, Sense and Sensibility, and Emma. I love Jane Austen. I'm in the middle of re-reading Mansfield Park, actually.
Did you happen to like Sense and Sensibility very much? It's probably my least favourite of hers, though I'm not sure why...

Now you'll never see, what you've done to me
You can take back your memories they're no good to me
And here's all your lies,
You can look me in the eyes
With that sad sad look that you wear so well

I haven't read Sense and Sensibility, but I wasn't into the movie that much. Yeah that story just doesn't interest me as much as her others. Of course though Pride and Prejudice is my favorite and then weirdly I think Northanger Abbey is second.
