Wow...

that's all I have to say for the last few weeks. First I get a nasty bug that won't go away and turns into a sinus infection, this infects not just my brand new eating habits but also my exercise routine. Then I went out for my friends birthday and got violently sick on top of losing my phone!!! It has been such a very upsetting two weeks, but I am working on getting back on schedule. I just finished a Pilates video and it nearly kicked my butt!!!! I am also working on reading Georgette Heyer's Faro's Daughter; it's very good so far, from the same period as Jane Austen which is the big draw for me. I'll let you know how it does....

Why is Pride and Prejudice SO Wonderful?

Every time I read it I feel like I see something new to love about it, and every time I'm sad when it's over. Now that I have I don't know what to do! I had planned on reading Life Mask by Emma Donoghue. However, I have read in so many places that Georgette Heyer is the next best thing to Austen, and I have borrowed one of her books from the library. So I wonder, should I go with my original choice or begin Faro's Daughter instead?
