Movie Review: Jane Austin Book Club

Bernadette: All Jane Austen, all the time. It's the perfect antidote.

Prudie Drummond: To what?

Bernadette: To life.

I have a confession, when the Lakeland Public Library, had us read Jane Austin my prejudices against 19th century writers took over and the chauvinist living inside of me said: "Forget it, I am not into this priggish Victorian dribble!" But, after watching the movie "Jane Austin Book Club" I feel I was too boarish to judge so quickly. The love for reading books and the connections made between readers is absolutely neccessary in todays fast-forward tempral world. THe movie piqued my interest and I pray that I will have another go at Jane Austin.
