Thought I’d just do a short post today sharing a cute little Jane Austen music video that I just came across.
Hope you’re all having a wonderful day!

My sister Viktoria (who returned home from England a couple of days ago. How long she will stay here before she goes back again though I don’t quite know yet) is doing a course in Swedish right now. And for that course there are several books she has to read, but she also gets to [...]

In 2002 BBC made a documentary called “The Real Jane Austen”, which is (as is rather obvious from the title of it) a program about the life of Jane Austen. I have know of this for quite some time now, and I actually began watching it a long time ago but for some reason I [...]

I promised you that I would write a post letting you know what I thought about Our Mutual Friend once I had read and watched it. And since I have now done both, here goes.

I haven’t had much time t devote to reading lately, so it has taken me quite a long time to read [...]

Bright Star… the movie that came out last year, based on the three-year romance between the poet John Keats and Fanny Brawne.
I saw the trailer for this film for the first time some months ago, and my interest was caught immediately, first of all by the costumes. Regency costumes! Apart from the Jane Austen adaptations [...]

When I lived in England for half a year I got to see the 2008 version of Sense & Sensibility when it was first aired on television. And since then I haven’t seen it again, not until a few days ago that is. Not because I didn’t like it, I did, but because I didn’t [...]

I wrote about Lark Rise to Candleford before, this summer when we had just finished watching season one of this series. We all loved it, and for a long time I have impatiently been waiting for the opportunity to see season two. And finally that opportunity came!

I was delighted when I found out that this [...]

The reason I haven’t written anything about the Dickens adaptations we bough a little while back is because I haven’t yet seen many of them. But one of them we’ve just finished watching. The six hour long The Pickwick Papers.

I’ve never seen a screen adaptation of this book before, but I have read the book. [...]

I just came across this, and it was so funny that I had to share it!
There is a part of me that thinks it is very disrespectful to the book (Pride and Prejudice) and the characters. But it was really funny! It does have one “bad” word in it though, just so you know. [...]
