Persuasion by Jane Austen


Okay, it's been a while since I have read a Jane Austen book even though she is my favorite author. I read Persuasion over the Spring Break. I haven't read it since I saw the newest adaptation on PBS so I had forgotten what parts of the adaptation were "made up" and which things were really part of the book. It was more faithful to the book than I thought, except for the disastrous last 10 minutes! I think it's probably getting to be time to re-read more of her books. Reading Persuasion reminded me of why I love to read Jane Austen's books. She is such a great author! If you haven't read Persuasion lately, do it. It is not that long.
