tudorpot. The result I really wanted was Anne Elliot, who was not one of the choices. Too bad!I suspect this result is not surprising to anyone.
 | You scored as Elizabeth Bennet. As one of Austen's most beloved characters, Elizabeth Bennet represents what most women would like to become: strong, independent, and loyal. Of course, she has her faults including a stubborn will of iron and a clinging to first impressions. Overall, Lizzie is bright and lovable...something to admire and aspire to.

I recently re-read Sense and Sensibility. I found it wordy, although as moving as I remembered.
I wish there would be a film of Northanger Abbey soon. It was my favourite before I read Persuasion. It was very funny :)

And yes, I love the Ciaran Hinds movie. The characters don't look as I picture them but it's otherwise pretty much a perfect movie.
Mansfield Park is probably my second favourite of the novels, after Persuasion. I do find Pride and Prejudice witty and clever, but just a little too unromantic for my tastes.
I also liked Northanger Abbey - it was the first Austen I ever read. I was a little young for it, but still enjoyed it very much.

I'm pretty happy with this. I wouldn't wish to be a "loved" Austen character, most of whom I could cheerfully shoot. A battle-axe of a dowager is far more to my taste!
