So normally when asked what i like to read i respond accordingly, "If its romantic, epic, and the occasional super/preternatural aspect to it and the text doesn't look like it was written for a fifth grade comprehension, then i more than likely love it."
When selecting a book of literary merit for my AP English Literature & Composistion class the pickings get a little slimmer and since i'm super clingy i'm in trouble. lol So from reading around i've discovered Charles Dickens bores me unless its some new christmas special on "A Christmas Carol", Dostoyevsky whats to say, you may be an amazing writer with an interesting backstory and you may appeal to almost everyone who reads your works, I'm not one of those people, F. Scott Fitzgerald........I like you, and the list goes on but in all my searching I have yet to pick up a book by the reknowned Jane Austen, I don't know what it is, i just never gravitated towards her work. So that in mind I never watched the films. Until last night, I watched The Jane Austen Book Club and so with that i went to my school library and picked up "Persuasion" and "Sense and Sensibility".
Turns out i love her so far, we just have to see where this goes........;]
