  1. I tried reading that book once. Didn’t wake up for three days. It puts me to sleep just thinking about it.

  2. This from the man who’s read every book of The Wheel of Time.

  3. Wierd huh? I’m usually good at struggling through books, but there’s something about Jane Austin that’s brain-numbingly dull.

    My mum doesn’t approve of another version of Pride and Prejudice. She likes the current one. I don’t think she likes Keira either.

  4. Ah, I find Austen quite funny, especially in Pride and Prejudice. Mansfield Park is pretty good too. I’m having trouble getting into Northhanger Abbey.

    I like the previous one, and I doubt I’ll prefer this one. But how can anyone not like Keira? It’s just as well that I like her enough for the both of us.

  5. Is it a surprise that you like a hot 19 year old actress more than my mum?

    Are you sure it’s Austen? It seems like it should be Austin.

  6. Not a surprise I suppose, but I felt she was reasonably talented. She was good in Bend it like Beckham too, which I saw with you Perth Peoples.

    Austin either has Powers or is in Texas. Austen is more … austere.
