Of all of Jane Austen’s six major works, I have always been daunted by Emma: both the novel and its eponymous heroine. It is Austen’s longest work and contains her most “troublesome creature” Miss Emma Woodhouse. I am not alone in my challenge to unde...more |

OK Claudia, P&P&Z is a mash-up of Austen's text with zombies thrown in. The second books is a prequel and a completely new and original story. If you like zombies and gross humor you will love them.

I am debating if I should read Frederica or The Nonesuch or The Corinthian. So hard to choose. Thanks for the comment.
The Georgette Heyer month on Austenprose inspired me to finally take the jump and pick up one! I've just started Arabella and it's definitely enjoyable so far!
