Literary Inspiration

Hello, all!  Mynnette here with your weekly Make My Monday challenge! This week I've chosen a book cover of one of my favorite books--Persuasion by Jane Austen.  I would like you to be inspired by the cover, the book, or both!

*****PLEASE MAKE SURE TO MENTION IN YOUR
POST HOW YOU WERE INSPIRED BY THIS CHALLENGE.****

Here is the book cover for your inspiration~

 A little about this book: This classic was written in the early nineteenth century by Jane Austen.  The main character is Anne Elliot.  Anne has previously been wealthy, but her father and sister have wasted their fortune after her mother passed away.  She has also previously found true love.  She rejected it because the man was a lowly and poor sailor and Anne was counseled by a trusted mother figure not to marry him.  BUT, he's BACK and has made a fortune in the war against Napoleon.  Now her family thinks him a sort of catch--she's the only genuine person in a group of snobs.  She knows she made a mistake and has faithfully loved him the past 8 years.  But now she's a "spinster" at the old age of 27.  Will she and Captain Wentworth finally be able to be together?  I won't tell.  You'll have to read it! ;)

And now some inspiration by the DT~
