Hey, everyone. Have you ever loved a movie so much you thought you loved the book till you had to do

a podcast on the book and realized all your favorite quotes are from the movie, so now you're

panicked about your level of preparation? Today's book is Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen,

but actually by Emma Thompson. That preface just applies to Dave. I'm Kellinerskin. I'm a comic,

a father, and a big Jane Austen fan, and if you are too,

you're not going to like some of what I have to say today.

And I'm David Vance. For me, this book is in the category, do I like the book or just love the movie,

along with Louisa May Alcott's Little Women and Ralph Waldo Emerson's Shrek.

Sense and Sensibility teaches what I believed as a kid. If you like someone, keep it to

yourself at all costs, and one day you will inexplicably get together. And this is the

book file. All right, quick reminder to please rate and review the book pile, or in the spirit of this book,

tell us you're going to, but then string us along and break our hearts.

Better Heaven Ten says, I agree, does Harry Potter even need Ron? He's such a lame character.

Five stars.

On that subject, a little schedule change. Next week for our 50th episode, we're doing the half blood prints. Cool. What's the other half? All right, and without any

further ado, here are our four favorite lessons from sense and sensibility. I almost said pride and prejudice,

probably because I would rather be discussing that book. All right, lesson one, don't be selfish,

even if you're hot. Although I will say, if you're hot, people may let it slide.

You're a lot more likely to be called outgoing.

So, Willoughby is the hottest guy in the book.

I'll say.

And again, I'm basing this completely on the movie.
