Hrm, wanting to retreat into novels eh? Instead of just drooling over a fictional guy, play along in the story itself!
Remember those choose your own adventure books? Some genius has made a choose your own Jane Austin Adventure. Check it out -(The one I saw in stores here has a way cooler cover -with a little mirror on it!) http://www.amazon.com/Lost-Austen-Create-Your-Adventure/dp/1594482586?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1187165511&sr=8-1
Arg, doesn't like my link in the comment, it's chopped it up. :( Look up the book titled "Lost in Austen: Create Your Own Jane Austen Adventure"
by Emma Campbell Webster
I've seen it. I think I bought it for Megan I. for her birthday. I looked @ it, but didn't read the whole thing. Yeah, the cover was pretty cool. I don't think changing Jane's stories is very nice (shame on you PBS), but it is fun! And kinda snarky!
