It's the dialogue that makes it so much fun. Vodalus Send a noteboard - 26/04/2012 05:06:45 AM
Yeah, count me as another person who loves it.
I love that book. I never cease to be amazed (and entertained) when everything starts to unfold. I feel silly about that, but it is what it is. :P

Sidenote: I always, always type Price and Prejudice and have to go back. I find that appropriate.

Have you read it? Thoughts? Feelings? If you hate it, tell me what's your favorite "other literature" book.

See, I keep thinking Jane Austen books are "chick lit" but I like them anyway. Tom - 26/04/2012 02:43:07 AM 1439 Views
Oh, come on. Jane Eyre is a great book. Legolas - 26/04/2012 08:42:17 PM 1454 Views
Hated Wuthering Heights. (but not as much as I hate Rochester of course) Vivien - 26/04/2012 09:31:13 PM 1511 Views
I don't think the first adaptation is cheating LadyLorraine - 26/04/2012 10:04:14 PM 1389 Views

I admit she's too good for him - but isn't that part of the point? Legolas - 26/04/2012 10:08:13 PM 1514 Views

Could someone explain to me why Jane Austen's prose is considered good? Dan - 27/04/2012 12:24:00 AM 1661 Views
I don't like her prose, but I like the dialogue LadyLorraine - 27/04/2012 01:55:50 AM 1551 Views
You're not alone. ironclad - 27/04/2012 01:16:12 PM 1676 Views
I agree with what others have said nossy - 27/04/2012 02:30:31 PM 1518 Views
Dialogue, wit, characters. The plot and descriptive prose are merely functional, true. Legolas - 27/04/2012 11:26:27 PM 1405 Views
The dialogue, wit, and characters I am not puzzled about. Dan - 28/04/2012 03:17:37 AM 1570 Views
