In recent years Jane Austen movies have been made one after the other, or so it seems.
The popular British author has become a household name and rightly so, I love her work myself and can't wait to review the films based on her novels.
She was born December 16, 1775 and died July, 18 1817, she was only 42 years of age but had completed fascinating novels that were not well received by the people of her time.
Her way of portraying society was very "modern" for her time, but modern readers were delighted at the turn of every page.
