Everything Austen Challenge: Expanded Edition

Jul 22, 2009 16:55

I think this is a sign of how stressed I am that I am making my Austen addiction seem more "official" in order to justify it.

I've now decided to take the expanded version of the Everything Austen Challenge:

Original Items:
1) Read Rude Awakenings of a Jane Austen Addict by Laurie Viera Rigler (hard copy)
2) Reread Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen (DailyLit)
3) Reread Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen (Girlebooks)
4) Listen to Lady Susan by Jane Austen (Librivox via Audiobooks app)*
5) Listen to Memoir of Jane Austen by James Edward Austen-Leigh (Librivox via Audiobooks app)*
6) Watch the ITV/PBS Northanger Abbey [which I never got to finish viewing]

Expanded List:
7) ReWatch Clueless (I hope the sequel rumors are true)
8) Read Janet Todd's Jane Austen in Context, which I got at the last ASECs meeting
9) Read Michael Thomas Ford's Jane Bites Back
10) Read Amanda Grange's Mr. Darcy, Vampyre
11) ReRead Jane Austen's Persuasion (my favorite of her books)
12) ReWatch the 1995 adaptation of Persuasion (the best Austen adaptation, I think, and one of my all-time favorite films)
