F&F and TGIF (1)

Q: What drove you to start book blogging in the first place?

I don't really know... I randomly found WORD for Teens when I started blogging for myself, and I kinda just decided I wanted to do it, too. So I started. And that was that.

What are some of the most swoon-worthy quotes you've experienced in a book?

"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind." - A Midsummer Night's Dream

"There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment." - The Truth about Forever

"Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you." -  This Lullaby

"In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." - Pride and Prejudice

"Reader, I married him." - Jane Eyre

 

 

 

Prada and Prejudice by Mandy Hubbard

Title: Prada and Prejudice

Author: Mandy Hubbard

Series? No

Aquired From: School Library 

Summary: Callie is on a school trip to London. She wants to fit in with the rest of the girls on the trip, so she decides to buy a pair of red, Prada pumps. When she's walking in her new fabulous shoes, she trips and falls, hitting her head. When she wakes up, she wakes up where she fell. Except a couple hundred years before now. She meets Emily, who mistakes her for Rebecca, her American friend. Callie plays the part of Rebecca, going to regal balls, and maybe falling in love with Emily's cousin, an arrogant duke named Alex.

Review: I'm a Jane Austen fanatic. I love Bride and Prejudice. I was really excited when I saw this. I've been meaning to read it for a while. It didn't disappoint. Callie reminded me of myself, an extreme klutz (Except, on heels, I'm really graceful. Whodda thunk?). And Alex... Don't get me started on Alex. He's basically Mr. Darcy. And who doesn't love Mr. Darcy?
