I wonder how healthy it is to use a book, movie, audio book and tv series of the same topic and title to escape life or responsibilities for a while.

Who’s excited for these adaptations? I am SO excited!!!

Are there any kindle readers here? Amazon has a link where they post the top 100 paid and free Kindle books, and under "Literature & Fiction" there is a category called "Adaptations & Pastiche" where there are often Jane Austen continuation or variation books for free! Click HERE (this is for books in the US- if you are in another country then you may need a different format): https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/digital-text/18623138011/ref=zg_bs?ie=UTF8&tf=1 Think of these as fan fiction- authors ask, "What if this one thing were different from the original story- what would have happened?" This is lovingly called "JAFF" (Jane Austen Fan Fiction) and you wouldn't believe how this has exploded over the last several years! I have probably read at least 100 and love them. There were some regular original authors who made several variations, but now tons of people have joined the bandwagon! Some books are amazing and give us more of our favorite characters- (but, not going to lie, some are absolutely unbelievable or way too modernized for my tastes, and I can't get myself to continue reading them.) That's why it's good that many are free- often established authors will list a book for free to share so that if people like it, they will want to continue reading more from the same author. Let me know the great ones you find!

What is the way you consume books the most? For me I love the convenience of audiobooks but since they are more expensive, then I read from the Kindle app on my phone the most- I am a side sleeper so this allows me to read on my side without having to hold up a real book! I don't have the space right now for many real books anyways in an RV)
