Probably Pride and Prejudice, but I also love Sense and Sensibility.Originally Posted by Nightshade
Though it sounds typical, I would probably choose Elizabeth Bennet (Pride and Prejudice) or Elinor Dashwood (Sense and Sensibility), but I also always had a real love for Mary Bennet, despite not termed as a 'heroine.'Originally Posted by Nightshade

Pride and Prejudice
Fanny (Mansfield Park)
Edward Ferrars (Sense and Sensibility)
Lady Catherine De Burgh (P+P) - perhaps not traditionally a villain, but descends to that in her attempt to break up lizzy and darcy. I love her character, she's so ridiculously pompous, impertinent and rude, thinking it is her right to say what she likes, ask what she likes and do what she likes because of her rank. Her views on music always make me laugh.
This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with force.
Pride and Prejudice
Elizabeth Bennet
Mr Darcy
Lady Catherine De Burgh
wow I didn't read this thread til now. Mine are
Elizabeth Bennet (Pride and Prejudice)
Elinor Dashwood (Sense and Sensibility)
Gonna read more

Change is the spice of life
- Unknown -
LOL
Favourite book - Pride and Prejudice (though Northanger Abbey was a good read too)
Favourite heroine - definitely Elizabeth Bennet...as Jane Austen herself said, "the most delightful creature ever to appear in print"
Favourite hero - Mr Darcy without a doubt (and when I say that I'm thinking Colin Firth's Mr Darcy....I always imagined he'd look that way, even before seeing the BBC miniseries)
Favourite villain - Willoughby from Sense and Sensibility. Wickham comes close, but I met Willoughby first...when I read Pride and Prejudice for the first time I "knew Wickham would turn out to be a Willoughby"
P.S. Perhaps we could also have a favourite...er...um...how would I put it....er...a favourite Mr Collins award?![]()

I would give that award to Mr. John Thorpe of Northanger AbbeyOriginally Posted by ecarmikel
