Not one heartbeat do I forget

Lost in Austen

Amazing! Jane Austen must be turning in her grave but still amazing!!!!!!

Not one heartbeat do I forget! Brilliant!

"I love you.
I didn't know that.
But it is clear to me now that I have always loved you.
Every time I've fallen for a man, I've closed my eyes and it's been you.
Even Michael, and I pretty much lived with him for a year.
So, yes. I have a past. But every...instant in it contains you.
Everything I am.....belongs to you."




Mr.Darcy, Pemberley, Elizabeth Bennet and now Amanda Price.......I'm so in love!

Rarely has there been a character as everlasting and romantically inspiring as Elizabeth Bennet. A witty, defiant, annoyingly wit-spirited, funny under social circumstances that frowned uppon fun, independent...tottaly brilliant.

Elizabeth Bennet is the epitome of the all-time classic female romantic figure, in a book which seems to be all about manners and well kept gardens but in truth.....Pride and Prejudice is about what we see and what we believe, the road to understanding and actually putting prejudice...and pride aside in order to really see into one another.

When Mr.Darcy sees Elizabeth he is not taken to her, she is not what a young woman of her age should be, not acclaimed to music or singing. She reads and laughs and is independent and witty. But he is irreversably attracted to her as she to him as the book continues because of his character, because of his truth.

Well in this series Elizabeth Bennet comes into the 21st century (as is so fitting for such an independent figure) and Amanda Price, a young lady that has gone through the battle of the sexes of this century, takes her place(not so lightly though, with a lot of self-battling and with a thrilling twist right at the end- not a heartbeat do I forget).

A young woman with all her notoriously known characteristics and a dash of 21st century.

I never expected to see one of my favourite heroes ripped apart and then put back in such a way but Lost in Austen has really captured (for me) the Jane Austen spirit, and my favourite book (I am not particularly fond of the rest except for Sense and Sensibility)

It is indeed a dream to find Mr.Darcy behind a door in your bathroom but my only problem continues to be....I'm still greatly and ever so strongly tied to the 21st century...(but I wouldn't mind Mr.Darcy)
