Pleased to report that this isn't dull and dry like some non-fiction books are.

“Elizabeth gave him that lively smile that was sure to set Darcy‘s heart racing”

Lately I've been watching a lot of Jane Austen movies/mini series. I've now seen 4 versions of Persuasion, 2 of Sense and Sensibility, 2 of Emma and 3 of Pride and Prejudice. (I am including the zombie version which was more entertaining than I expected.) So when I saw this at goodwill the other day it seemed meant to be. It went immediately on my read now pile. Who else out there loves Jane Austen?

Jane Austen's Letters | Jane Austen, Deirdre Le Faye
post image

An ebay find. It looks like a long book but that is because half of it is notes and references.

#Pemberlittens I've been contemplating color schemes for flower beds up against the house. There are plenty of foundation shrubs for greenery but no flowers. And then replacement copy of In The Garden with Jane Austen. My brick and brick at Chawtow Cottage are a close match! It's giving me lots of inspiration. 🏡

julieclair Love this! Would love to see a pic once you've planted the flowers. 8mo
julieclair Yay! 8mo

#Pemberlittens thank you so much for the great feedback and suggestions for our #JaneAdjacent subgroup! I will continue with monthly buddy reads but some may start later or earlier in the month depending on my schedule. I like having a monthly vote as it keeps things fresh and people engaged. I will throw into the mix a few other classic retellings for variation. This will be a very flexible group - jump in and out depending on your preference! ⬇️

StayCurious Book suggestions are always welcome. Book pace will depend on the length of the book and when we start it in the month. I‘d also like to do laid back movie discussions since there are so many Jane productions out there. For our next vote click here: https://forms.gle/Y6dK88Ae7ewR96nY7 11mo

rubyslippersreads Voted! Hard to choose, but I picked a book I already own. 😊 11mo
julieclair Voted! But I‘ll be happy to read any of these great choices! 11mo
IndoorDame Voted! I think movie discussions would be a super fun addition! And I did end up going through my TBR, but the only adaptations on there right now are ones the #pemberlittens read a while back and especially enjoyed that I didn‘t join in on. I‘ll let you know if I stumble across anything else that looks fun though ☺️ 11mo
Larkken Voted! Thanks for the tag! I like the idea of movie chats 😊 11mo
CrowCAH @StayCurious and @BarkingMadRead I believe last year, 2023, you two took over for the PemberLittens tag after @sprainedbrain stepped down, because it became a bit much for her, and started JaneAdjacent. Is there a way to be tagged for future votes on JA inspired reads? I know even for myself with being pregnant and now having my daughter, I wasn‘t participating too much on Litsy last year, but I‘m trying to get back into it. 10mo
BarkingMadRead @CrowCAH I am doing the classics, @staycia doing the Jane adjacent 😍 congrats on your baby girl!! 10mo
CrowCAH @BarkingMadRead thanks on both accounts! ☺️ Yes, I‘m raising a little reader! 📖 10mo
StayCurious @CrowCAH congratulations! Of course I will add you to my main tag list! 10mo
