I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Hey, it sucks to be a teenage girl no matter what time period it is.

I would be tempted to replace Pride and Prejudice with Sense and Sensibility, but that could be simply because I like the latter better.

Little Town on the Prairie. It's all about Laura and her getting a part-time job, going to school, admiring the boys/young men, socializing and indulging in teen fads, looking after her little sister, and taking on more adult responsibilities as she grows up. Yes, it's set 125 years ago, but the minutia of being a teenaged girl is what this installment of the series is all about.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, Little Women! I have to get a copy of that. Why don't I have a copy?
I prefer Sense and Sensibility to P&P though. Always have.

I haven't read the Little House books in years. I re-read Little Women all the time, but not Little House. I may have to take a trip to the library today.

The early ones are good as children's books, but I love to reread the DeSmet books (On the Shores of Silver Lake, The Long Winter, Little Town on the Prairie, and These Happy Golden Years) as YA classics that really hold up to adult re-reading.

Oh, I agree, Kathy. The DeSmet books were the ones I read over and over again.
Does anyone read Lisa, Bright and Dark anymore?
