First Impressions - Indulge your inner romantic with a new Puffin Classics collection of Jane Austen novels.

Left destitute after their father's death, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood must navigate love, marriage, and societal expectations to ensure their security and happiness. But romance isn't easy, and soon Elinor finds her good sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's romantic sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

To find happiness, both sisters must learn to balance sense and sensibility.

Fall head over heels for First Impressions, Puffin Classics' 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.
