For all you Darcy addicts, I just read a fun book by Shannon Hale, Austenland. It's full of references to all of Austen's books, as well as other favorites (Jane Eyre, Scarlet Letter...), and even has men with breeches and sideburns. Fun, easy read, nothing too serious. Just yummy fluff. And (sad bonus) short enough that I only neglected my family for one night.
Happy Reading!!

Ooh! One of my students recommended this after reading it, too.
I may have to move it up in my To Be Read pile.
Okay! I've been wanting to do this since you put the post up, and I have now officially put Austenland on hold. Hmm... I wanted to check it out, but alas, it was not meant to be.
(alas, alas, I need a lass! :)
