Struggling to finish "Persuasion" - my New year's resolution was to read more classical literature starting with Austen. Thought it would be easier than the usual attempt at a diet -not so!! After that just Emma and Northanger Abbey and i will have re-read all six. Have just finished watching a DVD of Lost in Austen which was quite funny. After that I have the book "One Day" lined up which my cousin and her husband recommended recently -any thoughts? Another friend told me it's a bit "obvious" and lined up to make another "Rom-com" film -probably with Hugh Grant...
Another friend recommends a "Kindle" but they seem a bit expensive -the major problem with penguin Classics is the size of the print - a bit small for us who have poor eye-sight (that's my excuse for being slow!) .
