I really can't

Every time I pick up this months reading challenge of Jane Austen's books.  I can't do it....... Really can't. 

I start to read the book and the words start to lose me.  That is strange, love Shakespeare.  I get that.  But Jane Austen, just doesn't get me.  The words are too flowery and old.  Yes writing is so descriptive, I get that.  I personally just can't get into the story.  

I will try another Jane Austen novel.................. but so far this months challenge is a FAIL!!!!!! 

Take care

March is.................................... Jane Austen

Went to the library to borrow "Pride and Prejudice" or "Northanger Abbey".  But Jane is popular, really, really popular.  So I managed to borrow "Mansfield Park" .  The other two have been requested.......... 

Well the story so far is, it has a green cover and a nice picture of a big mansion................

Okay I picked it up and put it down again, sewing fabric Easter eggs called my name.  I will try again this arvo, I will try............................ I sudo promise

 


Take care
