 The picture simply does not do justice... July 27, 2006

...to how absolutely exquisite this set actually is. The books are exactly of the snug, compact size that many novels actually were in Austen's day (e.g., the one Elizabeth Bennet is holding in her hand in the popular mini-series, when Miss Bingley invites her to `take a turn about the room'). I cannot tell you how lovely these little books are, with fine paper dust jackets over cloth bound covers, built-in bookmarks of red satin ribbon and this fragile kind of gold-leaf at the edge of the pages. You actually have to take care when you turn certain pages the first time to separate - almost `cut' - them by delicately running your finger in between: it makes the most satisfying crinkle-zip sound. And they are so convenient. You can just tuck them right into you're purse or jacket pocket - perfect if you want a delightful dose of Austen while travelling - yet they still read very easily and comfortably as far as letter type and size go: no squinting necessary. I love them so much, I've given the set as a gift to other Austen fans, who have always been as thrilled with it as I am - even if they already have all the books!

I recieved this as a gift today and it is absolutely beautiful!!! The picture does not do it justice at all. They are bound beautifully and are just the right size. I just need to dress up in period costume and imagine myself back in time!!!! Where's my Captain Wentworth?!?!?!

I received this set as a gift from my husband and I am so pleased with them. Not only are they a perfect size but the way the books are presented from the case they are in to the lovely quality paper they are printed on and the gold edging on each page makes them feel all the more special.
I cannot recommend this set highly enough for any JA fan - a must for any book collection!
Delightful! February 8, 2007

I received this box set today. I was pleasantly surprised! They are absolutely gorgeous. The picture doesn't do them justice.
They are smaller than I imagined them to be, and at first I was a little worried that the font was going to be too small to read easily, but it isn't. I found the font to be the perfect reading size. Wonderful! I wish they made more books this size!
