I've read Pride and Prescience and, like Sam Kelly, found it readable, but it didn't send me running back to the library shelves for the second book, either. I really disliked the way she depicted the relationship between Liz and Darcy.
However, my taste in that matter is rather different than most Austenophiles, I believe. I have one friend, for example, with whom (by mutual agreement) I cannot discuss the BBC P&P miniseries, in fear that such a discussion would cause a permanent falling out between us.
Texanne @ 499 (et al): My preferred term for blackberry/reasberry brambles is "puckerbrush".
And up here in ME, where the growing season is (as my mum puts it) 2.5 months long, and one of those months doesn't get above 60 degrees, mowing it down actually seems to make it healthier. It can't, however, keep up with the horses' appetites.

debcha, my mother eats her rhubarb dipped in salt. If I could, I'd dip mine in sour patch kids.
