One of My Favorite Authors...

I found the coolest quiz on a dear friend's blog. (Thanks, Crystal! It's scary how alike we are.)

Take the Quiz here!

I have been working my way through a book I bought in September (in KC at a medical conference)....the Complete Works of Jane Austen.
She has always been one of my top three favorite authors of all time but I hadn't read that many of her works.

Since January (or before even) on Masterpiece Classics on PBS they have been broadcasting all of Jane's novels adapted into movies. My husband has TiVo'd them all for me and he actually has watched over half of them with me! He was quite shocked that he enjoyed them. I own quite a few of the "old" adaptations of several of her movies but I hadn't seen most of these newer adaptations. They have been quite good. I'm behind in my viewing lately, though, so poor Eric gets to sit through "Emma" and "Sense and Sensibility" very soon.

I simply love "Pride and Prejudice" but honestly my favorite Austen heroine is Anne Elliot. Not surprisingly, we are apparently the most alike. If anyone has not seen or read "Persuasion," I highly recommend it.
