I just watched that again today, and I'm convinced I must get over myself and read some Austen.Halo said:Anyway, after the BBC adaptation, which I saw most of, I decided to give Pride and Prejudice a try, and I actually quite enjoyed it. It even had some laugh-out-loud moments. However, I did find it quite hard going and it has not encouraged me to read any more of her work. Yes, she is a very clever author but she's not really my cup of tea.![]()

I had to read Animal Farm in high school, and from what I gather they're still reading it, so I don't think it goes to show our age.Freya said:Showing your age, Halo![]()

I read Pride and Prejudice, and I liked it. Several years ago, I decided to read some of the classics, and this was one of them. Little Women I had some problems with because some of it did not make sense to me. Maybe the time period when it was written should be taken into consideration, and I read it a long time ago.
