I’ve been rereading the book after having swallowed Longbourn. Normally sequels/prequels leave me cold. This is a wonderful companion novel. Terrific writing.
I’m so glad I mentioned it. I hadn’t heard of it, either, though. My husband gave it to me for my birthday in January. It is well done, truly. Hope you enjoy it.
I think every version of this film is fabulous, especially the Bollywood version. (Best line from Bride and Prejudice: “Is it just me or is every woman over fifty checking you out?” Some great lines!)

What? Why haven’t I heard about this book? It just went into my Amazon basket — “the bellow stairs answer to Pride and Prejudice.” Thank you!

Ah yes Bride and Prejudice; fun.
It’s all about the costumes and the dances!

of course our favo(u)rite role for Mr. Naveen Andrews will always be the Buddha of Suburbia.

and wasn’t Larry Olivier wicked(ly amusing)?
Dang! I better start with book and move on to the mini-series. How did I miss this?
