Maybe I'm a weird Austen fan...because the only Austen book I haven't read is...Pride and Prejudice! And I've got it! It's just that...well, I have the film version (the Keira Knightley one, wich I love :D ), and I wanted to save it...Do you know what I mean right?? Everyone says it's the best so...you know the sentence, "saving the best for last" : )

My favourite book without a doubt is Persuasion...I instantly fell in love with the story and all of his characters. I love that fact that it's heroine is not loved by is closest family and has lost so much.

Maybe later I'll tell an awful confession...hehe.

Kisses!!

While Pride and Prejudice was published in 1813, and Sense and Sensibility in 1811, the original manuscript of P & P was written around 1797.
