It is a truth which should be universally acknowledged that the first book of the year should be by Jane Austen. This helps one get one's moral bearings for the new year.
So I'm rereading Mansfield Park.
Quote:
"I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library."
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
