He's such eye candy that I really didn't mind. :DLilMissMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05847160970054624743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-21235165012983686322010-06-27T11:05:15.737-04:002010-06-27T11:05:15.737-04:00I read this book a while go thinking it would be a...I read this book a while go thinking it would be a good introduction to Jane Austen. Embarrassingly, I've only read (and loved) P&P. And maybe because I wanted more Austen than it gave, but the book disappointed me incredibly.<br /><br />Then, through happenstance, I watched the movie on television a couple of months ago. The movie was okay - and better than the book (IMO) - but still it didn't do it for me.christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749333368560606659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-31151508411854150952010-06-27T10:42:14.747-04:002010-06-27T10:42:14.747-04:00I agree that the book is pretty fun, and I think t...I agree that the book is pretty fun, and I think the movie is true to it. Since my JASNA regional group is fairly small, we function as a book club and believe me, it is fun to get together with like-minded sorts to debate who was worse, Wickham or Willoughby.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-3093373932286689952010-06-27T09:41:07.074-04:002010-06-27T09:41:07.074-04:00I want to read this!

I picked it as a graduation gift for a friend - and ended up reading the book myself first (yeah, I know, shame on me :/).<br /><br />Grigg was my favourite character. I just wanted to smother him with hugs!Alessandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06652990135572677170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-18072459492877754852010-06-27T00:51:00.083-04:002010-06-27T00:51:00.083-04:00I love this cover :)I love this cover :)Tales of Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938494589922620170noreply@blogger.com
