Which Jane Austen Secondary Heroine Are You?

1. If you could take a vacation anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Oh, I really do not know! There are so many lovely places! Do advise me!

A little English village where your family resides

Brighton, to marry off your daughters--what an opportunity!

London, perhaps...

The West Indies

Home again, to visit your family (with or without your husband, who is quite busy)

2. What's your favorite kind of ice cream sundae?

Chocolate ice cream with chocolate-covered peanuts.

An ice cream headache would be torture to my poor nerves!

Mint chocolate chip with whipped cream and a little hot fudge.

Chocolate with pineapple chunks, strawberry sauce, hot caramel and wet walnuts. And a cherry and whipped cream.

Vanilla with hot fudge, nothing fancy.

Vanilla with caramel sauce, but you must share it with me.

3. If you were invited to a party to which you did not wish to go, you would...

Go anyway, it's the right thing to do.

Stay home and eat apples in your tree house.

Write a cordial note of regret.

Ask your best friend for advice and act upon it.

Go, hoping that no one will ask you to sing and play.

Tell your eldest daughter to write a regret, it does not much signify. You dine with four-and-twenty families, after all!

4. What kind of man will you marry?

Someone whom you can love and respect

Someone of good social standing and excellent character--carefully selected by your best friend

You are already married to a man who has no compassion on your poor nerves.

Someone who is kind, funny and knows how to have adventures!

Someone who (hopefully) loves you very much even though he doesn't show it in front of people.

It doesn't matter how odious the man is, as long as he is respectable.

5. What do you like to do in your spare time?

Read a good book

Chat with your younger sister

Study the atlas and map out your next expedition

Plot your daughters' marriages

Take walks, arrange flowers, giggle and spend time with your friends

Read improving books (such as Fordyce's Sermons) and visit with your friends

6. Which of these best describes your family?

No parents, but a doting aunt and grandmother

Mother and two older sisters

No known family, though it's said you are the natural daughter of a gentleman.

Parents and four younger sisters

A respectable husband and five lovely daughters.

Silly parents, a silly younger sister and at least one little brother who wants to be rich.

7. Your beauty is...

Still childish, but you will be very pretty in a few years.

Fair, but not striking.

Five times more than that of your sisters.

Quite obvious, and your relations never let anyone forget it.

Past its peak... you are very nearly "on the shelf".

Ah, back in the day you were the toast of a regiment.

8. How can you tell if you're in love?

You couldn't answer that question because you are not romantic and never were.

When someone cuts off a bit of your hair to keep, of course.

Well, you really couldn't say because it happens so often!

It's true love if you are willing to wait indefinitely for someone, even if it seems he's ceased to love you.

When the gentleman makes an offer, naturally!

When you meet a young man who is sensible, good humored, lively and perfectly amiable.

9. Your best friend is...

Your wealthy neighbor, who has taken you under her wing.

Your sisters-in-law are your confidants.

Your younger sister.

Your older sister's beau.

Your neighbor and her older sister.

You don't have any close friends, but you wish you did.

10. When you face an awkward social situation, you...

Trust your friend to deal with it

Stay calm, cool and collected

Awkward situation? You know not the words!

The situation is probably your fault... and you're going to catch it from your sisters on the way home!

Politely change the subject of conversation

Blush and hope no one is looking at you

11. If someone deliberately insults you, your automatic response is...

To sigh and put it down to experience. Sticks and stones...

Deliberately! Oh, no, it must have been unintentional. She meant no harm!

Make a catty remark about her to your daughters or sister.

To hide under the table and refuse to speak to anyone.

To cry

To carry on as if nothing had happened

12. If your life were to be made into a movie, who would you choose to portray you on the big screen?

Lucy Boynton or Emilie Francois

Laura Pyper or Olivia Williams

Toni Colette or Louise Dylan

Alison Steadman or Brenda Blethyn

Lucy Scott or Claudie Blakely

Rosamund Pike or Susannah Harker
