These books are pretty similar in description. They're about some well-raised young women (and their families and friends, of course) in early 19th-century England, trying to get married and juggle men and propriety and manners and such. They're full of dialogue and personal interactions, and are wonderful period pieces. Austen writes extremely well, but the matters at hand are consistent and can get tedious if you're not really into the manners of the day. There's tons of stuff about Austen and her books behind the links - go check them out.
