Sheffield
Miss Benning is very rich but very unconventional and so is shunned by London society. Mr. Donal is about to lose his family's home to an Uncle he doesn't know. Set in early 1800s England it is a story of love, loss, regret and redemption. My nod to Jane Austen.Lengkap
Pride and Prejudice
"Pride and Prejudice is an 1813 romantic novel of manners written by Jane Austen. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book, who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and eventually comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. A classic piece filled with comedy, its humour lies in its honest depiction of manners, education, marriage and money during the Regency era in Great Britain. Mr Bennet of Longbourn estate has five daughters, but because his property is entailed it can only be passed from male heir to male heir. Consequently, Mr Bennet's family will be destitute upon his death. Because his wife also lacks an inheritance, it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well to support the others upon his death, which is a motivation that drives the plot. Jane Austen's opening line--"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife"-is a sentence filled with irony and sets the tone for the book. The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love, not simply for economic gain or social prestige, despite the communal pressure to make a good (i.e., wealthy) match." -Wikipedia More readable version of "Pride and Prejudice" from the Gutenberg library.Lengkap
VANITY FAIR by William Makepeace Thackeray
VANITY FAIR by William Makepeace Thackeray Published 1848 Summary: The novel deals mainly with the interwoven fortunes of two women, the wellborn, passive Amelia Sedley and the ambitious, essentially amoral Becky Sharp, the latter perhaps the most memorable character Thackeray created. The adventuress Becky is the novel's central character and the person around whom all the actors revolve. Amelia marries George Osborne, but George, just before he is killed at the Battle of Waterloo, is ready to desert his young wife for Becky, who has fought her way up through society to marriage with Rawdon Crawley, a young officer from an aristocratic family. Crawley, disillusioned, finally leaves Becky, and in the end virtue apparently triumphs when Amelia marries her lifelong admirer, Captain William Dobbin, and Becky settles down to genteel living and charitable works. The rich movement and colour of this panorama of early 19th-century society make Vanity Fair Thackeray's greatest achievement; the narrative skill, subtle characterization, and descriptive power make it one of the outstanding novels of its period.Lengkap
Sincerely Yours
In 1800s England, a well-meaning but selfish young woman will do anything to avoid matrimony to the county's finest suitors and to justly prove she doesn't need a husband to find her way in society. Even under the peril of her uncle losing his property and business to debt. In all but two months, she must prove to her family she's more than capable without a husband and can, in fact, exceed society's expectations of the female sex. But what woman can write what she hardly knows of the world, and its secrets? And most of all, how far is she willing to prove herself toward society and the Lord? At what cost for love? Maxmillian Knightley has returned from university in London, now facing the looming title of marquis. With that title comes responsibility to interact with those he despises most, and with which he must fight for his inheritance. But how far will he go in order to grow favor in the scrutiny of society and his stiff-neck father? He may be everything a woman of the ton looks for in a husband - titled, wealthy, and cheek bones that can draw in any woman - but he is in no mood to humor eligible women by participating in all things reformed. The question is: how far will he go to do everything against his own sensibility and judgment? For inheritance ... or for loyalty and love? The only common enlightenment between two entirely different sexes? A fondness for penmanship and our humorous Lord who writes the very novelty of life itself. And what happens if proving oneself leads to something quite worse? When it comes to love, making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies.

Vampire and Prejudice

Castaway
Torn asunder by a cruel twist of fate, Charlotte and Sidney go their separate ways. Sidney, in particular, suffers a great deal and by the time he reappears, he is so altered that he is almost unrecognisable. Charlotte too does not have quite the glamorous, independent adventure she might have hoped for. Like any good soap opera, a few characters get killed off along the way - but don't worry, you won't miss them too much! A broken fairytale... with a happy ending. (With apologies to Robinson Crusoe, Jane Eyre and other classics I may have borrowed from!)Lengkap
Korn & Knock - Destiny (Together With Me Series) (Bad Romance)
Destiny, some people believe in her, some people don't. For Korn and Knock, the hidden power that controls what will happen in the future is already hard at work and predetermined. This Goddess of Kismet proves herself to be unstoppable. An inevitable and irresistible course of events binds the pair to their fate. I have excluded the norms of society and have written it as if there was no controversy surrounding homosexuality. There are no "coming out" aspects to it. I ask that you suspend today's mindset on the subject and accept, in this story, there is no animosity, bias or bigotry. This is the third in a series of novel Adaptations. The original Jane Austen novel was titled "Persuasion." It was published in 1817, six months after her death, her last completed work. All photos used, cttoLengkap
Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
Hello everyone! So this is by no means my book. I'm just posting it for myself and those that might need it for classes or just entertainment. All credit goes to Jane Austen. I don't know why but it's always easier to read on Wattpad rather than the actual book. Hahahaha I hope this becomes of some use to you :)Lengkap
