DRYBYJANEHARPER

Welcome to January 2024 #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our Jane Austen books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form each month. (this prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club. 1y

Soubhiville -There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

I will build a new Google form for 2024 by the end of January. ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville Some of you are tagged more than once because I‘m not sure the tag worked for the first time… let me know if you got two notifications? I‘m going to read

Pride and Prejudice

Soubhiville @Susanita good luck! Classics can be a challenge for me. 1y

dariazeoli This is the year I finally read

Pride and Prejudice

IndoorDame I‘m thinking I‘m going to read Emma. I think it‘s been by far the longest since I‘ve read it. 1y

Lcsmcat I may reread Persuasion. It‘s my favorite Austen. 1y

Bookwormjillk I‘m not sure yet. I‘ve read them all so it‘s going to be a mid-month treat for me to pick whichever one I have a feel for. 1y

TheSpineView I'm think

Sense and Sensibility

Laughterhp I‘m going with Sense and Sensibility. I‘ve never read it before. I‘m just waiting on my library copy. 1y

Amiable I may skip this month to focus on my #AuldLangSpine booklist—undetermined at this time. 🙂 1y

Jess I found two different copies of Sense and Sensibility on my shelves so will start there but I‘ve never read Northanger Abbey and may want to try that this month. 1y

AllDebooks I might go with Persuasion as it's the only one I haven't read or maybe stick with comfort reading my favourite

Sense and Sensibility

Melismatic I‘m not an Austen girlie but I trust this challenge! Gonna go left field with

Persuasion

vonnie862 I'm going to try Northanger Abbey. 1y

Soubhiville @Melismatic I‘ve actually never read her! I feel like a book traitor to say I enjoy the movies but have never been drawn to the books. I‘m trying this month though! 1y

Soubhiville @Amiable I love that challenge! I hope you have a bunch of books you‘re excited about for it. 1y

vlwelser Emma. I'm not really an Austen person. I read P&P and kept expecting (hoping) zombies were about to lumber out of the bushes. We'll see what happens with this one. 1y

BarkingMadRead I think I‘m going to read Persuasion. I always reach for P&P so I thought I‘d try something different 1y

Read4life I‘m going to try Northanger Abbey on Serial Reader 1y

Soubhiville @Read4life oh great idea! I often forget about serial reader. 1y

Bookzombie I‘m going with Sense and Sensibility. 1y

MrsV I think I might try Persuasion 1y

Julsmarshall I‘m not sure, like @Bookwormjillk I‘ve read and own them all and plan to see where the wind takes me mid-month. Excited to get back into Austen 🤩 1y

Caryl I‘m excited for Austen month! It will be fun to read all the posts. I‘ve read The Big Six, so I‘m going to start with one of her early works, then see if I have time for more.

Lady Susan

Deblovestoread I‘m going to start with Persuasion. If time allows I might squeeze in either P & P or S & S. 1y

dabbe Either SENSE AND SENSIBILITY or PERSUASION. Haven't read either one. 1y

mom2bugnbee My favorite! So excited to have an excuse to re-read her catalog! 1y

KadaGul @Soubhiville I might not be able to get to the Authors until March. I am in few local Library 📚 reading 📖 challenges. They all will end in February. For March #JANEHARPER I'll have #DRYBYJANEHARPER 1y

Soubhiville @KadaGul do you want to be added to the tag list? 1y

KadaGul @Soubhiville Yes I want to because 5/12 I'm in local library challenges and then the rest i don't know 🤷‍♀️ what to read. This way I'll have little theme going on to fill in the gaps. If that's ok with you. 1y

thegreensofa I‘m reading

Jane Austen - Sanditon: The last novel by Jane Austen
