Äntligen vår!

Efter vad som känns som två månader i ide har solen och värmen äntligen gjort comeback, och jag kan krypa ut i världen igen.
Inget stickat finns att rapportera - ännu. Men snart! I lördags fick jag äntligen litet inspiration, och nu har jag redan stickat bakstycket, och vänster framstycke!
Läst litet har jag åtminstone. Försökte mig på Jens Lapidus bok Snabba cash häromveckan, som jag äntligen hittat på biblioteket, och är glad att jag inte gått i fällan och köpt mig ett exemplar. Boken har nu strandat under min säng, och kommer inte vidare. Är bara inte min stil, språket passar mig inte (även om det varierar med kapitlets huvudperson så sitter det ändå inte där det ska i mitt huvud), och jag försöker faktiskt låta bli att läsa sånt jag inte gillar, för det finns alldeles för många böcker i världen som jag verkligen vill läsa.
Och så har jag läst Captain Wentworth's Persuasion av Regina Jeffers, mer detaljer om den på engelska.

I'm slowly, slowly waking up after two cold and dark winter months.No knitting, just a lot of sleep and rest. But I've picked up my needles again, and should have something to report soon!
I've done some reading, though. Tried to read "Snabba cash" in Swedish by Jens Lapidus, but gave up - not a book for me.
I did finish Captain Wentworth's Persuasion by Regina Jeffers, though. That is, Jane Austen's novel Persuasion written from Captain Wentworth's perspective. I mostly bought it since I liked to see something based on Persuasion for a change - there's probably a million different titles based on Pride and Prejudice out there...
This was quite ok, actually. I can't say I liked everything, of course - I, as all other readers, have my own personal opinion about what happens in the book and between the lines, and no author can have the same opinion as I do, apparently, but for most of the book, Regina Jeffers comes pretty close. The language is ok, and as long as this book keeps parallell to the original, events are mostly correct.
Towards the end, though, when she starts telling us what happened after Persuasion ended, well... I'll just say that I do not agree with her there. Too many titles, riches, and to me Anne falls out of her character.
Also, I do not understand why all authors nowadays have to add sex in their books. Especially Jane Austen's books and characters are much better without anything of that kind mentioned! Don't be alarmed, though - there really is no sex in this book, not in the 21st century way anyway, but there are far too many kisses - and even before they were married! I'm shocked and disturbed.
But all together, this is a decent read - there's much worse out there. But maybe I'd rather re-read Jane Austen's original instead.
