I can no longer call myself a Janeite. Over the last few months or so, I have undergone a complete change of heart in regards to the work of Miss Austen. How can I put this. I just. . . don't like her books any more. They are overlong, shallow, tedious, and - dare I say it - BORING. I'm sorry if I offend anyone. I just can't understand how Jane Austen's books ever appealed to me in the first place.
Sorry, Jane.
Oh my goodness!! I can't believe what I am seeing here!! Is this post for real?

ReplyDeleteLOL! I didn't remember what today was until I read this post. Nice one! ;-)
As we age;) we find our tastes changing and developing. You'll find a 'new love', interested to wait and see which author you develop an interest in.
ReplyDeleteI'm on a biography binge at present.
I was shocked until I remembered!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Took me coming over here to say something to realize what today was! (other than palm sunday)
ReplyDeleteOh, ha! Took me a second. Good one. :P
ReplyDeleteHappy April Fool's Day to you, too. :D
ReplyDeleteThis seriously did "have me" for a second. Or two. :P
Haha, I HOPE this is an April Fool's day joke! How can anyone not love Jane Austen?(:

You know as much as I like Jane Austen, I have to kind of agree with you. She is tedious some times, and I have found that her books aren't as deep as others(like the Bronte sister now those I could have a field day with:)So though I still like Austen I agree that I don't like her as much as I use too.
ReplyDeleteOH NO!!!!!! OH MY!!!
ReplyDeleteThis can't be true, however I must agree with you, her books are SO BORING, I've never liked them, and I don't think I ever will.
