Three great love stories that started it all... Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice and Wuthering Heights are three of the greatest novels in English literature. Now joining them is Pride, Prejudice and Popcorn, a decidedly different take on these classics. You will laugh with delight as you learn: -- The importance of thoroughly investigating your employers before accepting a job at their isolated, creepy house (Jane Eyre) -- The sad fact that not every bad boy has a heart of gold (Wuthering Heights) -- How to make a proper proposal--and how not to. Hint: don't insult your beloved while attempting to talk her into marriage! (Pride and Prejudice) Join blogger and romance aficionado Carrie Sessarego (smartbitchestrashybooks.com) as she takes us to the movies with Jane and Liz and Cathy. In her own unique, hilarious style she discusses the books and the various movie and TV adaptations. Your living room will be graced by heartthrobs like Timothy Dalton (twice!), Colin Firth (he shows up twice, too!), Michael Fassbender and Tom Hardy. Whether you are in the mood for serious academic discussion or lighthearted snark, whether you prefer Regency romance or Gothic passion, and whether you prefer your love stories on the screen or on the page, this book has something for you.… (mehr)

An enjoyable reference of Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre,and Wuthering Heights. If you haven’t read these books, you may have seen the film adaptations of them. If not either way this book is for you. The author gives a synopsis of each book that is insightful and humorous. Her wit and at times sarcasm, color her reviews making it an enjoyable read. Although I enjoyed her view of Wuthering Heights, (a high death count most of it due to a ‘Mysterious Victorian Disease’), I still do not like this book.

She goes on to discuss the adaptations of each book in film, rating each one. Having seen possibly every adaption of Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre, I found her views very entertaining. I agree about Colin Firth and Timothy Dalton.

I recommend this book to any high school student to help understand these classics and to anyone who is curious or just wants an overview. ( )
