I think my favorite is Northanger Abbey, at least it was when I read it which was several years ago at this point. I remember DH and I watching the Pride and Prejudice mini-series when it was on A & E in the mid-90s, we were blown away by how good it was (not my DH's usual choice btw, LOL). I am reading the "Bobbie Faye" mystery series at the moment - fun - and just bought my first Jodi Picoult, can you believe? Handle With Care. Don't know how I've missed her books for so long!Heather https://www.blogger.com/profile/13442874670876152187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-72849435928392428822009-11-20T23:56:18.823-06:002009-11-20T23:56:18.823-06:00mY oldest daughter loves Jane Austen.

This film has 'to drool over' sets and costumes and englishmen! If you haven't seen it, please check it out!!<br /><br /> I bought the Lost in Austen DVD for only about $10 on half.com..a good deal for 3 hours of fun...thanks for recommending it! Unlike yourself, if I enjoy a movie I WILL watch it again and again, so I like to have it in my collection.<br /><br />Thanks for your blog, always enjoy your goings on and your wit at dealing with life :o)<br /><br />ElizabethElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14584744403425323128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-49541541071079064762009-11-18T21:27:50.681-06:002009-11-18T21:27:50.681-06:00Oh and have you seen Elizabeth Gaskell's movie...Oh and have you seen Elizabeth Gaskell's movies?

Jane Austin too!! I have also read man...I LOVE(!!!) Jane Austin too!! I have also read many of the books that take Pride and Prejudice further. My favorites are by Abigail Reynolds. She takes parts and says "what if this happened instead". Unfortunately I've had to purchase them all as no library around here has them. They are all very well read though so it was well worth the money.<br />My 13 year old daughter finally sat with me and watched the BBC version of Sense and Sensibility, which she insisted she would NOT like. Needless to say less than 1/2 way through she asked it I had the book. Score 1 for mommy :)being moldedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04628585300154262134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-81116842685766192182009-11-17T14:44:43.458-06:002009-11-17T14:44:43.458-06:00Nice post on Austen!
