In honor of the bicentenary anniversary of the publishing of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, Laurel, of Austenprose, is hosting a challenge to celebrate. Now you know I cannot resist anything Austen related and I've been wanting to reread Sense and Sensibility so I'm breaking my self-imposed ban on more challenges to join this one. I'm joining at the Neophyte level to keep the pressure off so I only have to read/watch 1-4 related things. My plan for the challenge is to read:
The Cookbook Collector by Allegra Goodman
The Three Wiesmans of Westport by Cathleen Schine
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
Becoming Jane Austen by Jon Spence
Chances are I'll also be watching at least one movie adaptation of the book as well. And maybe another book...or two.
I LOVE all four of your reading selections and I am anxious to read your reviews!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea the Goodman book was related to Sense & Sensibility. I may have to rethink its position in my TBR pile!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're up for the challenge Lisa. Thanks for joining in.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these books yet, so it will be interesting to read your reviews on them!
ReplyDeleteAnother challenge!!! I knew you couldn't resist!!! Look forward to your reviews.
ReplyDeleteSounds like such a fun challenge! Enjoy! And I am definitely looking forward to your reviews of some of those books that are on my TBR pile. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteYou will have so much fun with this one!!!
ReplyDeleteVery tempted to join the challenge, but I've decided to read more in other historical periods this year. Look forward to your reviews, though!
ReplyDeleteYou've succumbed! Happy Challenging - I'm sure you'll love all of these books. Have fun.
