Librarybelle Do you think Wilmet is clueless about these men? She‘s getting gifts and invites to lunch and flirtations from not her husband. I want to see how this evolves! And yes…I‘m pretty suspicious of Ransome and his actions with Mary… (edited) 12mo

BarkingMadRead @Librarybelle i don‘t think she‘s entirely clueless, but i also wonder if she realizes they don‘t just want to hang out with her, that they have an endgame 12mo
Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle clueless or just bored? 12mo
Librarybelle @BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I think she may realize something is up with Piers. 12mo
Ruthiella @Librarybelle I think she is aware and enjoys the attention. But she‘s not necessarily looking for an affair, just flirting. 12mo
Aimeesue @Ruthiella I agree. She‘s bored and likes the attention but also wants to have plausible deniability. “Oh, heavens! I thought he just needed someone to have lunch with!” 12mo
rwmg I'm coming to think she is how Emma would have turned out if there had been no Mr Knightly 12mo
Librarybelle Haha, I guess I just need to read this a bit more carefully…I was not really picking up on any of that! @Ruthiella @Aimeesue @rubyslippersreads 😳 12mo
bthegood @Librarybelle @BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella @Aimeesue @rwmg @Bookwormjillk @rubyslippersreads - I agree with the idea that Wilmet knows what she is doing, she enjoys the attention. I do think her mother-in-law is also aware of what is going on! I had not thought Ransome was shady - until now!! 12mo
Bookwormjillk @rwmg so true! 12mo
AnneCecilie The introduction to my book actually compares this to Emma, and I do see some parallels @rwmg 12mo
julieclair @rwmg @AnneCecilie Interesting comparison. But I like Emma immeasurably more than I like Wilmet. 12mo

Pride and Prejudice | Jane Austen

#PemberLittens #ChapterADay

Ch 15: Mr. Collins walks the girls (minus Mary) to town, where they meet Lydia‘s Denny with a new guy—Mr. Wickham is apparently DAMN FINE. Bingley and Darcy meet them, and Lizzy observes that Darcy and Wickham seem to know and dislike each other. How mysterious! Aunt Phillips invites everyone to dinner and resolves to get Wickham there, too. Mr. Collins has never been so honored in all of his life. 🙄

See below!⬇️

sprainedbrain It‘s time to play Pick Your Wickham! I realize there are others, but these are the two I watch the most, and for my money, Rupert Friend (2005) is handsome enough to tempt me. 😍 4y

ElizaMarie I have never seen any adaptation of this book (Unless you count Pride and Prejudice and Zoombies) but... I am crushing hard on this pic of 2005 Wickham! 4y
rubyslippersreads I think Wickham and Willoughby would be pals. 😄 4y
OriginalCyn620 I agree with you on the 2005 Wickham @sprainedbrain! I think for me, it‘s the longer hair, which goes with the bad boy thing. 🔥 4y
sprainedbrain @OriginalCyn620 yep, and his pretty pretty face. Lol 4y
OriginalCyn620 Well, yes, @sprainedbrain. I thought that went without saying! 😂 4y
LiteraryinPA No! For me it‘ll always be the 1995 one. That‘s the version I know best and I think he‘s more handsome/smarmy. 4y
sprainedbrain @LiteraryinLititz Ha! We are even loyal to the Wickhams in our faves. 🤣 4y
Lcsmcat Yep, loyal to the 1995, all the way. 😂 4y
CrowCAH Could I have both? Each has a rakish quality that I like! 2005 is more pretty, while 1995 is devil-may-care attitude. Both are fine to look at 😍 4y
sprainedbrain @CrowCAH yes you may! 4y
sprainedbrain @rubyslippersreads they would be! Scoundrels. 😂 4y
sprainedbrain @Lcsmcat I can respect that! 4y
sprainedbrain @ElizaMarie oh you are in for a treat when you do watch them! 4y
Lesanne Hmm, the 2005 Wickham is pretty for sure! But I‘m drawn to 1995 Wickham more, for some reason. I think I‘m a sucker for curly dark hair! 4y
sprainedbrain @Lesanne he‘s very handsome, too! 4y
Librarybelle My loyalty lies with 1995...haha! 4y
katy4peas I‘m in with 1995. 😍 haha! 4y
ElizaMarie @sprainedbrain I‘m so excited to! I love that #PembeLittens and well Litsy in general opened up so much for me! 4y
Annie1215 I think I‘ve watched the ‘95 miniseries at least 4 times since I started working from home in March. You can‘t beat Colin Firth 🤷🏼‍♀️ 4y
BarkingMadRead Definitely 2005 4y
sprainedbrain @Annie1215 @katy4peas @Librarybelle I love Colin and I love the 1995 miniseries! Most of the time I would say it‘s equal for me, but then I go and watch 2005 again. 😂 (edited) 4y
sprainedbrain @BarkingMadRun YES. 🙌🏻 4y
wanderinglynn 2005 Wickham. Rupert Friend 😍😍😍 It‘s the long hair. Plus he‘s so pretty! 4y
MicrobeMom Big of the 2005 Wickham!!🥰 4y
mollyrotondo I haven‘t seen either version yet, but I‘m drawn to the 2005 Wickham. There‘s something about his eyes 👀 4y
LitStephanie I like 1995 Wykham best because his facial expressions reveal him to be a scumbag early on. That actor did a great job! 4y
DebinHawaii I will admit the 2005 version is much prettier for sure but lacks that certain smarmy rapscallion vibe of 1995 so he & that adaptation have my favor. (Was VERY excited to use “rapscallion” today—a sadly underused word. )🤣🤓🤣 (edited) 4y
Deblovestoread @DebinHawaii 💜rapscallion💜 4y
LeahBergen 1995 just radiates smarminess for me. I‘d probably head off to Gretna Green with 2005 even knowing all his sins. 😂😂 4y
eeclayton Definitely 2005! 4y
jenniferw88 1995, sorry but 2005 looks like a girl to me! 4y
sprainedbrain @DebinHawaii I will work rapscallion into my vocabulary at least once a week from here on out. 😂 4y
sprainedbrain @LeahBergen Head off to Gretna Green 😂😂😂 4y
sprainedbrain @wanderinglynn @MicrobeMom @mollyrotondo @eeclayton 2005 Wickham definitely makes me see how Elizabeth could be attracted to the guy. 😍 4y
