Books like Jane Austen: Three Complete Novels: Sense and Sensibility; Pride and Prejudice; Emma

I only read Pride and Prejudice in this volume.Fluffy, lightweight story of the romance between Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Sparkling dialog and expertly paced. Darcy is a magnificently flawed character, but none of the other characters really registered with me. This is Elizabeth's story and for all the trials she went through, I never really got a good sense of who she was. The other characters are just window dressing. Maybe I expected too much from this book. It HAS survived for more than 200 years, never going out of print. I understand and appreciate it's place in literary history; it's just not for me.The adequate intro to this volume claims that Pride and Prejudice has been likened to Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, which sums up my feelings about this book.But I can now check this one (and Austen) off my TBR.
