So when does this start? I'm excited to get started!
I'm losing all those stupid games
That I swore I'd never play
I know everyone is keen on Persuasion first, but there are some who aren't, e.g Dark Muse
+ there will be more people joining who want a say in it.
I'm letting a few more people know about this today and i'm going to create a poll for people to vote which book we should do first. I'll close it tommorow, and then we can work out when we read the others - and then we'll start
maybe give it longer than a day lima. give till monday...

As long as we dont start with Northanger Abbey or S&S neither of which I like I will be good.
will we be reading Lady SUsan and Love and Freindship ( austens spelling not mine) too?

Hmm, i'm trying to find a way to change the date on my poll or remove it altogether. There doesn't seem to be an option for it though?
If you'd like to, of course we can
I think we should but I think we should read the 6 main novels first?
I'm losing all those stupid games
That I swore I'd never play
date changed.
yeah the six mains first. i'm not partial to Lady Susan... dont know that other one nightie. I liked what she had of sandition and the watsons...

I really don't mind if the rest of you want to start with Persuasion I can just sit that one out.

So poll closes in a couple of days, we'll then need to decide the order for the rest of them so I can put a date chart up
well yes read the six main ones first, although if we read them in written order you would be starting with Lady Susan and nding with persuasuion
sort of see how Austen developed as she went along type thing.
