A Cool Site.
http://www.gutenberg.org/
Here you can find pulic domain works for download or online reading, including the afore mentioned Jane Eyre. I actually finished reading it online, as when I am in pain, holding a book for a prolonged time can be awful! I was glad to stumble on this site and may register to proof read some pages and contribute to the cause.
Jane Eyre was good. I was quite taken in by her character and found myself aching with her trials and rejoicing with her good fortunes. I think my husband was amused with my frequent verbal outbursts when the story line would take a twist. (Hi Honey, I see you peeking in here from work *waves*) It has it's moments when it gets swept up in the details of describing the setting a bit too much and I am often inclined to skim these parts in eager anticipation of returning to the plights of the characters. I never was one for too much window dressing.
Today, I should work on my costume for the pirate LARP at Origins. We leave a week from today. I should try and take advantage of the kiddo being in day camp today and tomorrow and at her Aunt's for a few days after that. Oh, laundry that needs doing, the kitchen that needs cleaning, the costume that needs making.... woe is me. *giggle*
