The above quote were the words of the honored author Jane Austen .Jane Austen is a world renowned English author and, despite her having lived centuries ago, she commands a legion of fans around the world numbering in the millions today. Her timeless works - numbering just six completed novels - have been turned into a plethora of motion pictures, television shows and modern adaptations at a regular pace in addition to being translated into multiple languages that help her stories surpass cultural boundaries. These six works have gone on to become the model formula for the romance stories of today.

•  Pride and Prejudice         
        ....Misunderstanding prevails

•   Sense and Sensibility 
  
                      …Striking the balance

•  Persuasion
  
                      …The heart never forgets

                     …Playing with Fire

          …Romance beyond books

• Mansfield Park

Jane Austen remains as popular as ever and is revered as much as any literary figure in the history of the English language .What kind of author would Jane Austen be without a sharp mind and an equally sharp tongue? Her personal quotes reveal something of her character – a fierceness that sometimes can come out of her lead characters. She certainly maintained a unique, almost stubborn, view of the world around her and had made up her mind about a great many things.
Jane Austen’s writing style is something very commendable. It’s concise yet very meaningful. While reading her novels you are totally surrounded by the “world” of Jane Austen. It feels like a movie going on inside your head. She was one such person who can make our hearts pounding on what’s going to happen next in the romance! Her stories give a new perspective to every individual. So go on ...and pick up a Jane Austen classic and read. I would personally recommend the above mentioned six.

“Wisdom is better than wit, and in the long run will certainly have the laugh on her side “  - Jane Austen
