books Books BOOKS....

Today I decided to feed my obsession for reading and get a Provo library card. I, of course, picked the "little kid version" with a giant green fun-loving frog on the front. Then I proceeded to check out Pride & Prejudice, Mr. Darcy's Diary, and Sense & Sensibility. Good thing they have a self-checkout line or I would have been slightly embarrassed by my Jane Austen addiction. Why is checking out your own books so fun? It's like the first time they opened up the self-checkout line at the grocery store and I got to slide my food item across and hear a pleasant little beep. Very satisfying.

Anyway let the fun begin.........

Hi Becca!
I know, you are probably thinking it's weird hearing from me--and I can tell you, it was interesting running across the blogs of you and your siblings...
I just had to comment on your choice of 'Mr. Darcy's'--I really like the one in the newest version of the film (with Keira Knightley)--can't remember his name! Anyway...It's so good to read news of how you are doing! Also--Congrats on the baby! That is awesome news. Write if you want--rainyskies07@gmail.com--

I would have to agree about the Jane Austen and Pride & Prejudice thing. I took a Jane Austen literature class over the summer, somehow reading five of her books in six weeks wasn't that much of a problem for me. And I guess you either... have fun!

I love Jane Austin too! Big fan and there are some great books out there, I printed a list of books similar to Jane Austen or extentions of it and I think you would love Elizabeth Aston's books. They are about the Darcy's cousins, children and are amazing! Happy reading :)
