Chapter 16 (Volume II, Chapter IV):"In the course of the same morning, Anne and her father chancing to be alone together, he began to compliment her on her improved looks;" - Persuasion.
I think this cover has made Anne too glamorous but it is a gorgeous edition. ?

pickI never knew the story behind King Henry VI and his mental illness. The women of this era were really treated poorly, and yet some were really brave. #Read2025 @DieAReader
My last book read for #37by37Readathon @MatchlessMarie

Ginger ale for me tonight. Getting Chinese take out. Yum! Watching Midsummer Mysteries & during ads, reading the tagged book. Early to bed with a book is my after dinner plan.
Chapter 16. (Volume II, Chapter III) 'Uppercross excited no interest, Kellynch very little, it was all Bath." - Persuasion.
We need Duckies for all Jane Austen characters!
*I have a busy Saturday so I'm posting tonight. ???

The first in the Flavia de Luce Mysteries, it‘s a book I‘m reading with my online reading group, https://thereadingloft.groups.io/g/main/topics. The theme is a children‘s or YA book. This one is a YA book, I believe.
Starting third book in series. Have not seen the TV series at all but books seem good.
pickSecond book is still very good. Uhtred is supporting Alfred in spite of what he thinks of him. His dark witchy woman becomes a Christian. His wife leaves him. Big battle at the end. Very readable for me.
Chapter 13 (Volume II, Chapter I) "One man‘s ways may be as good as another‘s, but we all like our own best. And so you must judge for yourself, whether it would be better for you to go about the house or not.” Persuasion
Wise Words from Admiral Croft.
Another edition on my Wish List - Dover Thrift Edition paperback. Just love pattern on cover. Very autumnal. ?????
