Yeah, my hold-outs have been Sense and Sensibility and Northanger Abbey. I can't even get through the S&S movie, which sucks because of my love for Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet. I've heard from a lot of people that NA has a lot more meaning if you're at least familiar with the gothic novel, but given my avoidance of all things Bronte, I think I'll just have to soldier on without the added benefit.
Also, it's funny you mention the film version because that's precisely the focus of this reread. We're picking books, reading them, and discussing adaptations in particular. We're all big Lizzie Bennet Diaries fans, which I think was what inspired this whole idea.
