This must be an instant favorite!
Next up is Jane Eyre and I hope I will love it just as much. |
Pride and Prejudice and
Jane Eyre are two of my favorite books! Jane Eyre is not light-hearted as P&P but still great. I read it last year via an online readalong; we divided up the books into 3 parts and had discussions after reading each part. It was a wonderful experience.
In an earlier post, you mentioned watching the 1995 A&E/BBC version of P&P; I have this as well (the DVDs) and I love it to bits. I try to get everyone in my life to watch it but that's mostly a lost cause *sniff*
I think this is my first time posting here, and I might as well say what I'm currently reading, which is Agatha Christie's
The Big Four. From my lurking around here I know
HarryT has been reading Agatha Christie lately so I'm hoping he'll stop by and comment on whether this one of hers is any good. I'm not that far in (just started the 3rd chapter) but I'm getting the feeling it'll be overly melodramatic or something.
I completed
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd yesterday (finally; I
only bought the book in 2010
) and I enjoyed it immensely. It's gone on the shelf of my top favorite mystery novels. I feel almost sad I can't read it again
for the first time
