I just finished my first classic book of the year (in September....took awhile) and I must say, I loved it. I finally read Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Years ago I saw this movie with my sister Kellie at Studio 28. Loved it. The elegant old house, the rich ladies wandering around with little do to and much to talk about. Well, I took forever to get into the book. One of those stop and starts and shelve-aways for a later date. Finally to be finished today. I was most happy to find that all the bits I found to be silly in the movie were not present in the original.
I'm glad Fanny Price won in the end. Although marrying her cousin is still a little weird.
Now I am search of my second unread classic book.
