Speaking of romance...

Jane Austen is the ORIGINAL bring-the-swoon lady, yo!  Why is she still such a force after all these years?  Not only are her books continuing to be made into films and television miniseries, but they have been lovingly adapted in countless novels.

Well now three young adult authors, no strangers to bringing the swoon themselves, are going to analyze the matter.  You can tune in and hear Shannon Hale, E. Lockhart, and Elizabeth Eulberg tonight at 8:00PM over at Figment!
