I think I stopped watching P&P after that one. There are only so many times you can live through wanting to put your shoe through the tv set. :-) Mr. Darcy is definitely not my romantic ideal. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that way.<br /><br />And yes, I read a lot -- but I don't drive and read on the bus to and from work, plus I had holidays and the weather was beastly hot so I just languished and read, breaking into a sweat whenever I had to turn a page. Plus, I don't have a little one at home like I think you do.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7469808576364463281.post-32504651099699059492010-08-04T02:42:04.510-04:002010-08-04T02:42:04.510-04:00I just finished this one.

You read fast!! :)<br />I've was never a huge Darcy fan, but I did fall in love with the Matthew Madfadyen(spelling???)version of Darcy. So now I always picture him when reading anything P&P realated. :)Bluerosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680170638396181756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7469808576364463281.post-87147110675451223232010-07-27T13:03:16.682-04:002010-07-27T13:03:16.682-04:00Welcome, Kathy!

For so long I agreed with Beth about Mr. Darcy, yet this character will be around as long as romance is alive.

It is for sale on Christianbooks.com -- along with a number of other titles -- among them: Jane Austen Ruined My Life. LOL. I've got that one on hold at my library. The reason I didn't tag it as Christian fiction is because it doesn't involve any kind of spiritual insights or inspirational messages the way Christian Fiction usually does.<br /><br />She also has a series about a woman pastor which I also have on hold at my library. I'm excited. I really like her writer's voice.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7469808576364463281.post-15652181942284380992010-07-23T19:47:35.605-04:002010-07-23T19:47:35.605-04:00Wow, this sounds like an interesting book! :) So g...Wow, this sounds like an interesting book! :) So glad you enjoyed it! I'm guessing this isn't really in the Christian fiction category, but is it generally clean and everything? It looks really good!<br /><br />~AmberAmber Holcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100265646497152198noreply@blogger.com
