Review
I loved the original Sense and Sensibility, and the 1995 movie. I don't normally buy into the Jane Austen "sequels" and knock-offs, but Brandon is a favorite so this title intrigued. I thought it was well written and provided an interesting supplement to the story. I wish, however, the story hadn't been so balanced (50% of the story covers Brandon's life before meeting the Dashwoods, while the rest is S&S told from his POV). I would like to have read more pre-Sense narrative. Not sure if the diary format lends itself well to that, though. Still, I did enjoy the book.
