By an Amazon.com customer
Jane Eyre (Penguin Classics)Jane Eyre (Penguin Classics) by Charlotte Brontë
Buy new: $8.00 / Used from: $0.12
As the 13th Tale parallels Jane Eyre in many ways, what better way to start this list? On an off note, if Mr. Darcy and Mr. Rochester got into a fight, who would win?
Middlemarch (Signet Classics)Middlemarch (Signet Classics) by George Eliot
Buy new: $7.95 / Used from: $2.00
I am still slogging through this one. I certainly wouldn't kill someone to pull this one out of the fire.

Buy new: $9.00 / Used from: $1.65
I had high hopes for this book--sadly, I was disappointed. But most of my book club liked it.

I'm pretty certain that the book mentions Jane Austen. If not, it should.

This would have to be in the library, and if not, it really should be.
