Pride and Prejudice
Sense and the sensibility - Jane Austen
Persuasion by Jane Austen
Pride and Prejudice or Jane Eyre or Wuthering Heights I guess (the books I have in hatd/paperback cover)
Finished _Sense_and_Sensibility_ 5/31/18
Guess I forgot that _Orlando_ would have qualified!
This is part of the Ultimate Reading Challenge I'm doing, and since I'm doing it to break out of a book slump I figure bending the rules in any way that gets me reading more is productive. Romance isn't really my genre most of the time, so I figured a classic romance was not going to happen and went with just a romance novel instead. The House of Velvet & Glass was not my usual read at all, but very light and fun. I liked how much detail there was about the dresses, the balls, the settings. Very lush.
Persuasion
Planning to start Orlando by Virginia Woolf when Pandora's Star is complete, since it is on one of my science fiction lists also.
Started Wuthering Heights in March, then stalled. Come back to it someday.
Read All of the Books from Jane Austin.
