I've read one or two of her books, but it's been awhile. I should try her again, especially given how much time I spend wondering if the similarity in our names is a good or a bad thing, since I'd be shelved right beside her if I use my real name.

She's also local, I believe.

I can lend you some of her books, if you'd like.

did it have roses on the cover? I think I'm thinking of the same book....

It may have had roses -- it's been a while. In the plot there was a question of child parentage settled by birthmarks (of course), and the rest of the book pretty much revolved around descriptions of clothing and of sex.

I appreciate Austen, but only really love one, and with a fierce hot love, and that's the one that seems to strike the least chords among the women I know. I'm a Persuasion freak.

Susan, there is no "subscribe" button under the title in any of my threads. Two links: Threadsuck and Unsubscribe. No Subscribe button.

Huh.

No Subscribe button.

Because you're already subscribed -- the option isn't relevant.

That'd be cool. Pretty soon I'll have to swing by your way and bring you boxes of baby clothes along with the old Balogh Regencies you loaned me, anyway.

Deb, that's because you're already subscribed. If you weren't, the unsubscribe button would be subscribe instead.

I've never read any Austen at all. Or Brontë

That's 'cause you're already subbed here. The second link changes depending on your current relationship to the thread in question.

[Man, WAY too slow. X-posts galore.]

Keen. I've got some other Regencys in the library here you might be interested in when you've got time, too. Just name the author and I can see if I've got it in stock.

Anyone want to google me the perfect hairstyle. I've been looking forever, am having no luck, and am feeling defeated.

Me? 37, looks it most days. Darkish brown hair. A decent amount of it, but it's both fine and wavy. I don't like my ears showing. I don't like my forehead showing, but I don't like long hair hanging in my eyes, either. My hair is happy with layers, but it's not a requirement, either. I need something easy to maintain. I don't want it too too short, because although I have an oval shaped face, it's a fuller oval.

I want the hair fairy to come fix me in my sleep, I think.
