Jane Austen Guide to Dating by Lauren Henderson

[filmbuff]

Hi Guys

I picked up this wonderful book yesterday-it is a guide to finding your perfect match according to the common sense and good judgement of Ms. Austen herself. You can also take a quiz to find out what Austen leading lady you're like-I found out I'm like Mary Crawford from Mansfield Park-not happy apparently I'm clever, cynical & pregnant dogy! then you can see what man you're most compatable with a bit happier I'm suitable for Captain Wentworth, Mr. Tilney & Mr. Bingley - good, solid men! A must for any Janeite! Do we have any Janeites here?!

all the best
