Pride & Prejudice
I really enjoy the period romances. Yes, I’m talking about those books that were forced down your throat during your literature classes. I loved those writers. Well, most of them anyway. There were some that were a little too wordy for my taste, but most of them are so elegant you can’t help but fall in love with the characters.
Anyway, I dragged Jayson to see Pride and Prejudice a while back and that got me in the mood to actually reread the book. The only trouble is that I couldn’t seem to find the actual book at Borders. I could find adaptions of the movie (ooookay) and other odd variations, but not the plain old book. Today, I finally found the original! And it was $18. Yeah, that was a bit much for one book when it’s probably been reprinted a million times. Now picture me in the bookstore having a slight look of disgust on my face and then imagine Jayson pointing out the much bigger book on the shelf that had four of Jane Austen’s books in one. The price on that book? A mere $20. You can imagine which one I ended up buying.
