a jane austen love

so i have to say that outside the realm of christian books, i have a favorite classic. it is pride and prejudice.

i started with the movie featuring keira knightly, and quickly fell in love. i know you aren't supposed to watch the movie before you read the book, but in this case, i think it is better. this is only because if i picked up the book and just went for it i would be SO lost. i am no good at keeping up with old language in books. i need a general idea of what is happening first..

after reading the book, though, i have to say it is 900 times better than the movie, and i still love the movie. that is a good book. my current copy has random people on the front with little random facts throughout the book. it does the job but i have a confession.

have you seen the new Penguin hardcover classics? i love them. they are precious. does a book need to be precious? no.


thought i should confess my need (want?) of a precious copy of my favorite book... :)

graduation in 3 days. FINALLY!
