Another Book

Is anyone up for another Austin book or a different kind of book? I just finished the Last Lecture by Randy Pausch. I would highly recommend it. It was rich, real, and funny.


Let me know what you think about another book. Also feel free to post what you are reading.

Final Section

I think that it is great that there is not a total happy ending. Those that deserved received and those that were foolish did not.

Section Two

Well the story picks up here. I am torn on how to feel for the girls. Did they allow themselves a freedom that their time does not allow. I think they have and yet I feel for them as in some ways they have been fooled but the men they have chosen. What do you think?

Section one

Okay Literary Fans,
Here it is I am going to put out my thoughts on all of section one. I have to admit that I almost abandoned this book in the beginning. I found the first two chapters painful, in part due to the exposition and character development seemed stagnate. Confusion arouse out of the repetitive use of Mrs. Dashwood. Which brings me to the fact that I am not thrilled with a couple of characters especially the younger Mrs. Dashwood who is out to deny Elinor and the girls what their father wanted for them. Then to push them out of the only home they have ever know.

I am not sure if Elinor really loves Edward or just the idea of him. Willoughby reminds me of some other character I have read. What do the rest of you think.?

The Return of Sense

Dear Friends,
Happy New Year to all of you. I am sure that you notice I fell of the reading wagon as we approached the holidays this year. With us going home and the regular aspects of life I was a bit overwhelmed for a bit. I know it is hard for me to admit being overwhelmed. I am a mom and don't think I have the right to feel that way. I hope that you will all know that I plan to post a couple of catch up blogs over the course of this week and then we will be square. Also keep in mind for another book.
