I'd heard of this somewhere before but have not yet read it. I'm glad it has the vote of a true Austen enthusiast and will have to get a copy! Thanks for the reminder.

I've got it on my TBR shelf and I've read a few pages - it's fun! I'm just waiting to read it when I've read Emma so that I don't find any spoilers that I haven't heard before.
Anna - Yes, I think I'll be re-reading this book a few times myself. I can't wait to get to Emma, but I'm saving it for when I'm finished with the Twilight series. It's the only Austen book I've yet to read, and I wanted to prolong reading it for a while because I know I'll be sad not to have any new Austen to read.
I think "Emma" is a great one for February (Valentine's Day) because it is really ALL ABOUT romance/relationships. I mean, all of Austen's are really romance/relationship novels, but Emma is a self-proclaimed matchmaker so the plot revolves around it more than any of the others, I think.
