More books

So I've found some inspiration from a co-worker who wanted me to write a story with a specific set of circumstances. I hope you will enjoy it as it comes.

I mentioned a few days ago that I would recommend some other authors. One of my favorite authors for classic literature is Jane Austen. When I'm feeling particularly romantic or sappy I pull out an Austen novel and revel in the silly romanticism's and beautiful language of the English gentleman.

Unfortunately these journeys tend to leave me wishing for a time when ladies were treated as ladies and where ladies acted like ladies, although somewhat foolishly.

My favorite of these novels is of course Pride and Prejudice. I suppose because I feel like I can relate to Elizabeth on so many levels.

So that is my recommendation of the day. Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Enjoy, but don't stay away too long. :)
