Lost in Austen - well, at least Darcy wasn't a vampire in this one!
Finished Lost in Austen, good God, it was horrible. By the end it was a total trainwreck. I've read better stuff on ff.net.
Not all is lost, however, because now I feel like:
a. pulling out my copy of the 1996 Jennifer Ehle/Colin Firth mini (oh God, I remember obsessing with it when it first came out, 14 years ago. I think for a lot of women over a certain age that was the case)
b. Digging out my Bridget Jones books - now there is a modern twisting I can like. They are so sharply-written and hilarious and I recognize entirely too much of myself and my friends in it.
Heeeee.
