Mr. Darcy

Ok, if I admitted the amount of times I have read the novel and watched Pride & Prejudice you’d probably call me a fanatic.  *coughs* read at least 12 times and the movie.. um.. way more than that *coughs* And here I find myself again reading Pride & Prejudice like it was the first time!  I figure every now and then it’s good to have some nice wholesome reading.  (you know, something aside to my People Magazine addiction) My mother-in-law has been kind enough to be my source for over a year now, renewing my subscription to People Magazine for my birthday.  Yeah, I know.. my mother-in-law is cooler than yours.  It’s ok, you’ll get over it eventually.  Anyway, back to the book at hand.  I’m not sure if it’s a crush on Mr. Darcy or perhaps Lizzy’s wit or her mother’s absurdness but I just fall in love with the book more and more every time I read it.

Some other books I’ve read lately that I have enjoyed are Twilight, Boy Meets Girl, Big Boned and She Went All the Way.  So yeah, I’m a big Meg Cabot fan.  It all started with a book called Boy Meets Girl.  I didn’t realize at the time that Meg Cabot was the lady who wrote The Princess Diaries.  Regardless, I had never seen a book written in that style before.  It was a series of IM’s, Email’s, answering machine messages, journal entries, etc.  It was just too cute and fun and I feel absolutely in LOVE with it.  So, go check out some Meg Cabot, you won’t regret it!  The books are HILARIOUS!

Let’s see in other news… My house is semi-clean.  Today I gave one of the Elder’s a piano lesson.  Tip for those who are trying to teach someone who doesn’t know a thing about music.. Come Unto Me (Hymn 116) is VERY easy to teach.  For a while I had a pretty full house.  Missionaries, my sister, my best friend, her two kids, then me, my hubby and our daughter.. add a barking dog and you have one big happy family!  Yeah.. now that I think about it I think I’m going to go chill on the couch and read some more.  Go Go Col. Fitzwilliam (he’s my fav.) Hmm.. I better get caught up with my Book of Mormon study class.. I am pretty sure I won’t be quizzed on Lady Catherine but there will be questions about 1 Nephi 17-20.
