My $0.02 Worth of Thoughts

This blog was created so that I can look back and remember the quirky things that happen in life. It's just a more sophisticated journal/scrapbook. The downside is my family and friends know what's happening in my life before my hubby does! :) Just kidding.

Mr Darcy

I am currently reading 'A Novel of Fitzwilliam Darcy, Gentleman' by Pamela Aidan. It is a trilogy that retells the story of Pride and Prejudice through the eyes of Fitzwilliam Darcy. And I must say they (the three books) are pretty good. I came about these books as I was browsing in Borders one day looking for something to buy with a gift card I received. I did not realize there are tons of sequels from this classic of Jane Austen's. There was one about Darcy's and Elizabeth's lives at Pemberley. And even some books dedicated to their children's lives! How very odd. I don't think I will be interested in those.
Darcy will always be Colin Firth in my mind :) He is one dashing man! I simply had to watch the TV series again while I was reading the books (I own the DVDs). It really helped to know what he was 'thinking'. My favorite part in the TV series must be the part where Elizabeth comes upon Darcy while she is visiting Pemberley.
Anyways, needless to say, I am thoroughly enjoying walking through picturesque England with Elizabeth and Darcy............
