Jane Austen

English writer Jane Austen -
Reading was a thing she could get lost in.
Never married; died at forty-one.
With romance novels, her readers' hearts she won.

Nice to be remembered but it was the story that they made a movie of. Drama and literature name name names and this is one of them.

Yes, I agree that I like some of her works. Amazing how someone can come up with so many different ideas to fill in the pages of a book. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page. Sara

My favourite author. I read Pride and Prejudice which I also loved as a film 20005 version. I lost count watching it. But I love others too. Hugs.
