Thanks to Jane Austen and then Georgette Heyer, that genre is my main passion. I love reading the classics and spending time watching the BBC, A&E or whatever versions of the movies I can find. I'm a life long New Englander, avid Red Sox fan, love equally the mountains and the beach, love 70's & 80's music (my era!), love my husband, family and friends! :) About my libraryPredominately Regency romances - Georgette Heyer and Elizabeth Mansfield making up the majority. Some John Grisham made their way onto my shelves, Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia, Little House books, LM Montgomery and even a few Nancy Drew. :) Groups40-Something Library Thingers, Almack's, I Love Jane Austen, Kindred Spirits LocationRhode Island Emailjannief2001 Favorite authorsNot set Account typepublic, free URLs

From the only book I truly enjoyed from English class was Ayn Rand's Anthem. Everything else we read seemed to be dark and depressing. One book we read in my senior year was so bad, IMO, that I refused to finish it and willingly took a failing grade. I'll have to do some research as to the name and author. I think I erased it from my memory banks.
Did your research ever reveal to you what that book was?

Wives & Daughters is simply stunning. I *almost* prefer to the '95 P&P (yes, blasphemy, I know!). The characters are wonderful and the cinematography is lovely. That's another one I could watch and watch and not get tired of. I haven't read the book yet, but it's on my BookMooch wishlist. Gaskell is such an underrated author.
If you hear when Cranford will be airing before I do, please let me know! I'll do the same for you. I'm looking forward to it, having just read the book. Good stuff!
