Ria (rial) | 17 comments The new question is already up on SlippedGear and should be up shortly on Blogger.

As I said in the question, this is one that I didn't know the answer to, since I have only seen the movies. It should be fun for any newbies, like me, that are reading Jane Austen for the first time.

Is it okay for a non-newbie to answer it? :)


message 3: by Ria (new)

Ria (rial) | 17 comments Sure, I'm looking for answers, so it is open to any and all to answer.

More than one person can even answer. :)

I follow the link to blogger, but it's still the last question that is coming up. Am I clicking the wrong link?

I don't know how to post on slipped gear. I have to double-check the "where" of the answer, too! :)

Ria (rial) | 17 comments Sorry about the Blogger board, its set up to post the question at 9am.

If you really want to answer on Blogger, I can see about moving the posting time.

As for SlippedGear, you will have to register to post an answer, just put in the user name you want to use & email addy, click the agree to terms, and you can post on any & all the categories that you want.

I prefer blogger because I have an account there. I'll check back tomorrow, no problem. Are you reading Emma now?

Ria (rial) | 17 comments Thats alright about Blogger. I can understand, I'm getting a lot accounts that I have to remember the info on.

Yes, I'm reading Emma, I found the full version(free) on Google Books and my sis in law found it in a box set of books at a yard sale, she is letting me borrow the box set for right now.

Great yard sale find! How many of Austen's books have you read?


message 9: by Ria (new)

Ria (rial) | 17 comments I have tried reading the others by Jane Austen, but I've had a hard time getting through a few of them.

I figure if I keep trying, maybe someday I will get through them, I haven't much time for reading lately, but a few minutes a day isn't to bad.

The question is now visible on Blogger. :)

Emma is not the easiest to read, either. You might try Northanger Abbey, which pokes fun at Gothic romance novels, or Persuasion, which is my favorite. Persuasion is a more straight-forward story, imo.

Ria (rial) | 17 comments I'll have to see if Google has those for free viewing, thank you for the suggestions.
