And Zombies

[soc_puppet]

There is really only one point to this entry, and it is this:

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
The Classic Regency Romance -- Now With Ultraviolent Zombie Mayhem!

I have a hold on it for when it comes into the library ♥ (I'm third in line, too O_o)




Maybe I should give some thought to reading the original before this comes out. *ponders* ...NAH.

The original is actually a short, easy read. It's not at all like slogging through Mansfield Park or Emma.

I'm still tempted, I'm just easily distracted by other things - especially YA lit.

Do you like romatic comedies? Because, basically, that is what Pride and Prejudice is. ^__^ You could download an audio book of it off of http://librivox.org (the link with the best reader is this one: http://librivox.org/pride-and-prejudice-by-jane-austen-2/ ). Free is good.

Adksflsdfd sixty chapters to download T-T Aaaarrrrrrgh. Free is excellent, but low-hassle would also be nice :(

...O wait, there's a single zip file of the whole thing. Never mind! *downloads*

Yeah, I noticed the single zip for the first time last night... ^^; I wish I had noticed that the first time I downloaded it....

The site is great. It has almost all of the Lupin stories and Sherlock Holmes stories to listen to.

I really need to explore more there; I already picked up Dr Esperanto's International Language and The Hunting of the Snark a while back, I'll bet there's tons more I could stand to listen to at various times.

Hmmm, I'll have to look into those, especially the hunting of the snark. It sounds amusing.
But, honestly, Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorites to listen to. I've listened to it twice three times (I think) and now I'm going to have to listen to it again.
Got to love the work people are doing to put audio books into the public domain.
