If I did this right.... Everything Austen over on Stephanie's Written Word blog and I heard about this from someone on Book Blog on ning.com, the author of the blog has challenged Austen lovers to six solid months of Jane Austen themed things. I am going to do this. Yes I am going to do this.
Okay so my 6 things are....
- Read Mansfield Park and do a comparative of the movies with the book
- Read The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen by Syrie James (which has been in my to read pile for almost a year)
- Review Becoming Jane the movie
- Locate and read Mr. Darcy Vampyre (how did I not know about this book?)
- Review the men in Austen's novels (that will be a tall order)
- The Jane Austen Book Club.... do a review and comparative of the book and movie with a twist...
Locate and read one of the other Jane Austen spin offs. Which of course will have a review.
Locate and review a copy of Bride and Prejudice.
Locate and review a copy of Clueless (it's been 12 years since I saw that film)
The challenge starts tomorrow July 1 2009 and runs until Jan. 1 2010.
Wish me luck.
