In 10 years or so, give her another chance and see if your opinion has changed. Sometimes great authors don't come along at the right moment in our lives for us to connect with them. If after reading her again you still can't stand Ms. Austin, let her be anathema!

My moment for appreciating jane austin was probably in grade school before I knew better. haha. i am so cruel. I didn't mean that....just liked how it sounded.

I think sometimes I just hate things that have become too popular. I have elitist tendencies.

I did read Pride and Prejudice once just to try to better understand the female psyche. ha
