First Impressions - Indulge your inner romantic with a new collection of Jane Austen's classic novels celebrating 250 years since her birth.

With a foreword by Lauren Asher, author of The Fine Print and Love Redesigned.

'I dare you to read the first chapter ... chances are you won't be able to stop once you start.' - Lauren Asher

Craving adventure, seventeen-year-old Catherine Morland leaps at the opportunity to step into the dizzying world of British high society in the resort town of Bath.

Adventure arrives in the form of handsome clergyman Henry Tilney, and the ominous promise of his family home - Northanger Abbey. But for romance to blossom, Catherine must find answers to her dark suspicions about the abbey and face that most terrifying of enemies - money-minded social climbers.

Fall head over heels for First Impressions, Puffin's boldly designed new YA Jane Austen collection. Like all the best romcoms, Austen's novels are full of meet-cutes, missed connections, and drama; they are masterclasses in the lost arts of stolen glances and breath-taking gestures.

With a stunning modern design and forewords from leading YA romance authors, this eye-catching six-book series is an open invitation to escape the brutal nonchalance of modern dating and embrace your inner romantic.

About the Author

Jane Austen, the daughter of a clergyman, was born in Hampshire in 1775, and later lived in Bath and the village of Chawton. As a child and teenager, she wrote brilliantly witty stories for her family's amusement, as well as a novella, Lady Susan. Her first published novel was Sense and Sensibility, which appeared in 1811 and was soon followed by Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park and Emma. Austen died in 1817, and Persuasion and Northanger Abbey were published posthumously in 1818.
