Hello. My name is Kim and I'm creating this blog because I want to discuss some of the books I've read and am reading presently. I'll also discuss the movies that were made for comparison.
I fell in love with reading because I saw the movie 'Sense and Sensibility' and decided to read the book. Reading Jane Austen for the first time did it for me. Before that, I was never interested in reading anything other than my decorating magazines. After 'Sense and Sensibility' I had to consume all of Jane Austen's works. I moved on to other Regency literature and other classics I know I should have already read by then. Each one made me more and more happy I picked up this new habit.
I was never a person to pick up a book and read it. Things have changed for me. I decided that if I was going to ride the subway for one and a half hours to two hours a day, five days a week, I needed to do something other than stare at the other people on the subway car. I almost never read at home, but there are some exceptions.
I want to discuss books I've already read. What I'm going to do it listen to them on audiobooks to refresh my memory and take notes. I am going to start with Jane Austen, but move on to the Bronte sisters, JKR, Agatha Christie, MC Beaton and even some male authors.
I hope you will return to read the first post which I plan on posting soon. Please leave any comment you like, especially if you don't agree with my opinions.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Kim
