Yes I know I have my reading challenge page up there that needs updating but I have been reading, just not updating and I know I am a super baaaad blogger but here is the gist of the challenge (as copied over from the following bloggers)
Kylie @Little Black Marks, Miss Dove, Car.
Everyone knows who Jane Austen is (hopefully) so here is the challenge:
The challenge to anyone who cares to take part is to read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin. Given the general craziness of most people's lives, the suggested time period of just over 3 months - from now until August 31, 2013 - consider it the perfect winter challenge.
You may also choose in those three months to do the extended version of the challenge and watch what started this all - The Lizzie Bennet Diaries which can be found on the official site, on tumblr, or YouTube.
If you are really brave, you can go the super deluxe version and also watch the movie or BBC production or any other production you know of.
The 2005 movie version starring Keira Knightley as Elizabeth and Matthew Macfadyen as Darcy Which I happen to have in My collection |
The 1995 BBC version with Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth and Colin Firth as Darcy |
I am going to try the super deluxe version - Book, both movies and the Lizzie Bennet Diaries. Also in case anyone is reading and interested I read another book last year that was free on Kindle for a while called "Darcy's Voyage"
It's just another little take off of the original Pride and Prejudice and I loved it.
I will write up a review after I re-read it as part of an extra challenge for myself.

wow, is that Colin Firth as Darcy magic moment almost 20 years old already...
Yay! Welcome to the challenge Bec!
I must pull my copy out! I have both movies and the book, plus other spin off type books so sounds like a good challenge for me :)
