I got a free copy of Two Guys Read Jane Austen as swag from the fabulous AustenBlog. Unfortunately, the actual book desperately needs a makeover -- the low-budget cover and design make it look silly and unprofessional, but under the surface this is a book with a lot of substance. If I saw it in a bookstore, I might pass it by, but I ended up being very glad I'd read it.

“Jane’s got more adoring female fans than Brad Pitt, and my guess is they’re more intelligent too!” Terrence Hill
Given the choice of reading Pride and Prejudice or watching a football game, which do you think the average all American male would choose? If this is a no brainer, you have recognized the male/female divide of how men and women think and feel differently, and the reason why the “Two Guys”, Steve and Terry were lured by their wives into writing their new book Two Guys Rea More...

The two writers have been lifelong friends, so peppered with their observations of first Pride and Prejudice and then Mansfield Park, are observations to one another about life that covers topics from plastic surgery, to alcoholism and writing. Written as a se

The title tells the tale of this story where two men- Steve Chandler and Terry Hill- in their 60’s, who have been friends since grade school, decide to read and exchange thoughts on the novels of Jane Austen. They have a reading plan and have already decided which novels they are going to cover- Emma, Mansfield Park, Pride & Prejudice and Northanger Abbey. They decide on a certain amount of chapters each week and exchange their observations in a series of thoughtful and humorous e-mails, with

This was very humorous. I didn't know what to make of it at first since there was so little of Pride and Prejudice and Mansfield Park actually mentioned. When mentioned it was truly with insight. Actually a couple things I never thought of. The blond joke was good. The guy insight of course had sports, memories from school and in general observations of famous people and authors. Upside it had me laughing out loud and it was enjoyable.
