Emma is my favorite of the six Austen novels. This is my ranking:
- Emma
- Pride and Prejudice
- Persuasion
- Mansfield Park
- Sense and Sensibility
- Northanger Abbey
Pride and Prejudice is weaker than some of the other novels, but it's just so darn funny.
Mansfield Park is terrific, but falls apart at the end (my relative ranking of
Mansfield Park and
Persuasion is my hardest call). And does anyone not put
Northanger Abbey dead last?
