ian Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 A couple of years ago I was persuaded by a friend to read Pride & Predudice. Up until that point I had no knowledge of any of the stories through either TV, film or the books themselves (other than a vague knowledge of some bloke called Darcy!). So I had no preconceptions to get in the way. I loved it, so have been working my way through the rest and have since read Persuation, Emma and now Northanger abbey. I'm sure I don't need to do a "proper" review here, as I'm sure most of you will already be familiar with it, so I will just say that I really enjoyed it and of the four Jane Austen's I have now read, this would be a very close second after P&P. If you haven't read it - I would heartily recommend it Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Hi Ian! I'm a huge fan of Jane Austen too. A couple of years ago we here at the BCF read a different Austen book together every two months. Here's a handy thread that gives the links to the various Austen threads and all the other books we've been reading in our reading circles. I hope you'll add your thoughts about all the books! Maybe we can spark up some more conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruth Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I adore Jane Austen. I'm glad you're enjoying reading your way through her books Ian Northanger Abbey is probably her most maligned book, but I really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
