In the Everything Austen challenge, hosted by Stephenie's Written Word, those participating are challenged to pick six Austen-themed items to read or watch. This can include Austen's own novels, of course, the numerous sequels to her novels, or one of the movie adaptations. This challenge will run from July 1, 2009 (my birthday!!!) to January 1, 2010. If you sign up for this challenge b July 15th, you'll be entered into a drawing to win Lost in Austen on dvd. I've seen a few clips of the mini-series, and it looks hilarious! You'll also have the chance for more prizes as the challenge moves along. For all the information and to sign up, visit the original Everything Austen Challenge post.

Here's what I plan on watching and reading for this challenge.

Movies:
Persuasion (2008)

Bride and Prejudice
The Jane Austen Book Club

Books:
Persuasion by Jane Austen
An Assembly Such as This by Pamela Aiden
Mr. Darcy's Diary by Amanda Grange

Well, that's all that I plan to do for this challenge. Why don't you join in?
