Me finishing this book has been almost a year in the making. I tried to read it last March but I struggled with the language. Even now it took me way longer to read than I would have thought possible, it took two 8+ hour train rides to finish it. Not much happens in the book and I had to keep going back to reread things. Probably still a bunch that I didn‘t understand.
My Build a Bear horse, Windmill, ๐ด turned 19 today and she‘s a fan of #JaneAusten!!! Here she is with a stack of P&P books I need to take pictures of and post for the collection.
โAh! There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort.โ (As read on her shirt)

Not my favorite reading month but I did see this in one of my discord chats & could not stop laughing
Even my laptop knew it was #PrideAndPrejudiceDay! The book was published 210 years ago on this date!
#PemberLittens
Happy P&P day! Pride and Prejudice was first published on the 28th of January 1813, and Jane Austen House shared a couple of fun playlists to celebrate - one for 1813 and one for 2023.

It's just so pretty. I had to share!!
The illustrations inside are just absolutely gorgeous.
โDarcy had never been so bewitched by any woman as he was by her. He really believed, that were it not for the inferiority of her connextions, he should be in some danger.โ
I feel guilty for not liking this book because I know so many people absolutely love it, but I just couldn‘t get into it.
It was a reread. The narration was perfect!
March book for #12Booksof2022.
@Andrew65
I‘m picking Pride and Prejudice the next time it is my turn in bookclub. I think I want to buy a hardcover version. Any recommendations? What are some of your favorites? Thanks!! ๐ฆ
This #scarf is one of the many Jane Austin gifts my mother has received from my daughter. P&P- themed items are always a safe bet. Of course, she will only display them, as she claims they are too special to actually use. #OminusOctober @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition! I love this cover:).
Austen Mondays is here!!! Watching Devoney Looser (Austen expert extraordinaire) and Edward G. Petit (from The Rosenbach) discuss the first three chapters from P&P. This read through goes on for the next 24 weeks, if any of you #pemberlittens are interested (link below). ๐โ๐

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that the first cracker in a packet of Cheddars will be broken." ?
I think that's the first line... ?
#thoughtfulthursday
1. A light-hearted romance, either YA or contemporary. ๐น
2. Sure do. And it‘s just nice to reread favorites and fall in love with them all over again! โค๏ธ
3. The tagged is a comfort one for sure! Between Elizabeth‘s sass, Mrs. Bennet‘s ridiculousness, and Darcy‘s transformation from massive tool to swoonworthy hero, it‘s just a good time. ๐
If you want to play, consider yourself tagged! ๐
I have arrived at The Governor‘s Mansion for my Pride and Prejudice weekend. There was a free bat included in the room. We had quite an adventure helping free it back outside. Tonight is the first event.
Hey, #pemberlittens - I thought some of you might be interested in this deep dive into P&P (and other things Austen) which is launching next month. Details are at rosenbach.org/events/austen-mondays/ and the accompanying Facebook group is already active. I've done other courses and things with/at the Rosenbach and they are super cool.
I admire this art almost as much as I admired this bookโก (not my art - I wish!) Took me long enough to read it all the way through, only took me 10+ years to pick it up again. It was lovely, consistently enjoyable, and such a well built world I wish I could return toโก
#alphabetgame #letterP @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Giving this letter to Austen! Such an amazing classic that only gets better with time!
Jane Eyre, W.H., Frankenstein, 1984 are my favorites! Hoping to get P&P read this year. I actually can‘t remember if I‘ve ever read it.
Just posted $1.50 paperbacks on #pangobooks. Much, much more to come! Free shipping $15+. @ellie_ember

Watching #VirtualJaneCon and catching up on #pemberlittens feed with my Austen mug today! The perfect end to my rather chaotic week.
Here's a link to our very own @REPollock's incredible bonnet video! I am in love with the Charlotte Lucas bonnet they created for the theater they work for. ๐

I also loved Dr. Elizabeth Rands' look at gender subversion in P&P! It's a happy day.

my favorite | it will never not make me laugh | jane austen is amazing ๐
In my #BarnesAndNoble Classics email they put together book adaptations based on popular classics. Naturally #PrideAndPrejudice was one of them!
It only confirmed to me that they release ANOTHER edition of P&P with new cover art!!!!
My #PnPCovers collection will continue to grow ๐ฅฐ
#Pemberlittens, some of these may be on our lists of books to read in upcoming months.
I don‘t like the voices she does, and I do like her as an actress so I really had high hopes. Idk if it was Covid Brain or what but I‘m almost 3 hours in, have no idea what‘s happening or who the people are and I have no urge to listen again ๐ maybe another day in another format. But I gotta bail
#roll100
Am I gonna bail? I kinda want to bail? The voices are throwing me over the edge and I don‘t think a normal amount of this has made its way to my brain.
Should I persevere?
#roll100
I did it! I joined the ranks of so many of you who have cool literary tattoos! After thinking about it for 4 years, last night I got a Pride and Prejudice quote on my forearm. ๐ I love it!

Now, we are celebrating #200PnPcovers, and our favorite #soldier has returned! This year, he is joined by Lydia, lovely and glowing, fresh from a #walk! (Poor Ted)
[Unfortunately, we could not get them in the same photo, as Lydia kept attempting to disrobe Wickham. ๐]
Congratulations, Cynthia! I‘m so glad I got to celebrate your 200 party with you! โค๏ธ
Four years ago, Wickham came to town to celebrate Cynthia‘s #150PnPcoverparty ! (Poor Bella)
Wellโฆ
@Mitch thank you for a lovely gift!!! The book is amazing! It is so much the style I love!!! (Also Owen was able to translate the title on it- fun!) I think it is the epitome of what journals should look like- but I equally love the JA keychain ๐ White Rabbit magnet (seriously perfect) and beautiful bookmark. Sending you hugs and love and gratitude my friend๐งก๐๐งก๐
Using the traditional vows from the Book of Common Prayer (1549), we assume Mr. Bennett took Mrs. Bennett โin #sickness and in health โฆ til death do us partโ and it‘s death‘s parting the Bennetts fear. For then, โMr. Collin‘s may turn you all out โฆ as soon as he pleasesโ
#200PnPcovers
Too many female #siblings and not enough suitable suitors. ๐
