I was working up to writing a review of the latest JAFF book I finished (if you couldn't tell by my previous post, I haven't been in the mood to do much of anything let alone write) when I spotted my girl Candy's post about the Los Angeles Festival of Books over at her review blog So Little Time...
Scrolling down her page, I spotted the graphic you see above and thought I'd finally found a blog challenge perfect for me. And I already had one book down!
Not to mention the Pride and Prejudice Bicentenary Challenge hosted by Austenprose would be a great way to learn more about JAFF, meet new bloggers & authors, and get me reading, watching, and writing more Jane Austen related material (not that I don't already do that half the year).
Plus it's even more of a challenge since I'm four months late to the party!!!!
So now it's time to list the books and films I'll be reviewing in the coming months. I'm going for aficionado status because that's actually pretty normal for me. Here are my 12 selections:
April
The Unexpected Miss Bennett by Patrice Sarath
May
Pride and Prescience: Or, A Truth Universally Acknowledged by Carrie Bebris
June
The Second Mrs. Darcy by Elizabeth Aston
Reflections by Linda Gonschior
July
Echoes of Pemberley by Cynthia Ingram Hensley
August
Georgiana Darcy's Diary by Anna Elliott
Pemberley to Waterloo: Georgiana Darcy's Diary Volume 2 by Anna Elliott
September

October

November
His Good Opinion: A Mr. Darcy Novel by Nancy Kelley
December

Are you excited?!?! I am.
