It's a Truth Universally Acknowledged...

that one should celebrate great books. A very happy 200th birthday to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, which was first published in London on 28 January, 1813.

I posted this as my Facebook status earlier today (or something very similar) but I had to share it here as well. I think this wonderful novel is still looking marvelous on its bicentennial!

Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books. I love the characters and never tire of reading it. Thanks for the reminder of this special day.

It's wonderful, isn't it? So witty and full of life! I couldn't let the day go by without a mention. :)
