Avoid Buyer's Remorse! 
1. Does the cover of your preferred historical reading matter traditionally feature either a woman in danger of a ‘wardrobe malfunction’ or a man who has misplaced his shirt (or at least his buttons), or both? 
2. When you say to your friends, “Oh, I just love Mr. Darcy!” are you, in fact, thinking of Colin Firth jumping into a BBC fish pond, rather than Jane Austen’s intricate creation, who had been ‘a selfish being all his life, in practice, though not in principle’? 
3. Do you deplore the fact that Jane Austen was herself the daughter of a clergyman, and that, however delightfully ironic her writing and witty her observations, she insisted on adhering to the somewhat priggish view that a charming rake was not a hero, but a villain--and also demonstrated other symptoms of ‘outdated morality’? 
4. If you dutifully plowed through Mansfield Park, were you horrified to discover that Henry Crawford was not, after all, the hero? 
5. And finally, like Winnie-the-Pooh, do you find it is “more fun to talk with someone who doesn’t use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like ‘What about lunch?’”--and, perforce, more fun to read them, as well? 
If you answered yes to all, or even most, of the above questions, do not buy this title!
