Jane Austen Goes to Hollywood, by Abigail McDonaldRead about the other entries on the list.
Sense and Sensibility gets the contemporary YA treatment in this retelling about sisters forced to move from San Francisco to a relative’s home in Beverly Hills after their father dies and leaves everything to their stepmother. As the girls balance new lives and new loves—and all they left behind with their old ones—they find there’s a lot of beauty in the unexpected, and a lot of heart if you know where to look.
