JANE AUSTEN (1775-1817) - Daughter, sister, friend, author, genius! I love all of her work but my favorites are 'Northanger Abbey', 'Persuasion' and 'Sense and Sensibility'. I love 'Lady Susan' so much too and hope one day a movie is made of it.
AGATHA CHRISTIE (1890-1976) - My second favorite author! Amazing queen of mystery! I love her Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot novels, but also 'Crooked House' and 'And Then There Were None'.
ELIZABETH GASKELL (1810-1865) - Author of my favorite North & South. Also wrote Wives & Daughters and Cranford stories and I want to read more of her lesser known works.
CHARLES DICKENS (1812-1870) - Awesome Victorian author. 'A Christmas Carol' is charming. I just really need to read more Dickens!
