Donna, as you know I LOVE Jane Austen too, but I look at those things more as tributes or satire than trying to copy Austen's style.Blush a.k.a.

Also, there's a wide difference between misunderstood outsider and all out baddie.The Scarlet Tarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799143168415937513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-9172464667446616942009-12-19T14:38:36.488-07:002009-12-19T14:38:36.488-07:00Aside from the love triangle, the other stupid (an...Aside from the love triangle, the other stupid (and dangerous) trend is "girl falls for bad guy who she knows is bad but can't stay away from him" angle.

It would be silly to assume that every girl meets one guy and is set for life, but does every heroine have to battle the "I love him, but this guy is great in his own way..." cliche?Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13020235392352824025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-57614969722297950692009-12-19T09:35:28.172-07:002009-12-19T09:35:28.172-07:00Trends...hmmm.

Admittedly I haven't read a ton of the knock-offs but with books and movies over the last 10 years all tauting or spoofing Jane Austen works it has made for a fun market. 'Clueless' was a darling Emma adaptation and Austenland by Shannon Hale was hilariously funny. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies got good reviews from Kirk so I guess the Austen trend is okay by me.Diva Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07212847651776831475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-13923159024018595222009-12-19T08:12:22.277-07:002009-12-19T08:12:22.277-07:00I don't want to read the others.
