Welcome to Litsy!

Emily goes on a Jane Austen tour in England and runs into the “real” Mr. Darcy. They have a handful of encounters while she‘s having her own version of Pride and Prejudice on the tour. There‘s a bit of a whimsy with a fictional character coming to life, and ultimately this was ok. I saw where it was going a mile away, and even though I understood the point the author was making, I didn‘t agree with how Emily saw Darcy. Wasn‘t a fan of Emily either

I read this book ages ago. I'm guessing back when it was first released. It's been on my All Things Austen Shelf since then. After reading some Goodreads Reviews I have a vague memory of it. Decided to reread to see if it deserved to be on my Forever Shelf.


1️⃣ the Cover. Why is this person wearing what looks like 1950's clothes when it's setting is Modern Day and Time Traveling to Jane Austen's day? It makes no sense what so ever.⬇️

Yes it's September but the last from my #AusteninAugust 2022. But I'm a #PemberLittens so it's all appropriate to be ready Austenesque.

Read it ages ago. After looking at Goodreads Reviews I vaguely remember it. Want to see if it's still worthy to be on my #ForeverShelf.

American bookstore ninja/Darcy fangirl runs into Mr. Darcy in modern times on his own turf. Hi-jinks ensue. Full review here: https://wp.me/p9KtkP-ks #amreading #bookworm #bibliophile #bookish #booknerdigans #bookblogger #tsundoku #greatreads #readmorebooks #coolgirlsread

Why is it that I always need to go at the most #inconvenient moments? I think, having a flashback to that day on the coach and Spike. Maybe I should start drinking cranberry juice or pomegranate or whatever it is that's good for your bladder. #QuotsyFeb20

"Not doing anything can be worse than doing the wrong thing" I finally get a hold of this book and I was not disappointed. Though in the middle the story got dragged a little bit but it was a good chic-lit story.

I grabbed this off the TBR pile (read mountain) during a jet lag sleep deprived night. A quick read and enjoyable. I‘m a sucker for books based on Austen‘s novels and also those about bookshops. This was a fun read and having done the ‘Austen thing‘ in Bath in late 2016 It was a nice reminder of our whirlwind visit.
Fun fact - if you search a Mr Darcy on Goodreads you get 649 results!

Someone didn‘t do their homework, she‘s not even wearing regency looking garments!

Begging Your Pardon; but I will be posting this picture from Chatsworth for the rest of my life. Why oh Why do I love Mr. Darcy? He always does what he thinks is right and when his right is wrong, he admits it and makes it right. For those who say he is moody I think he's actually a bit shy. He's steadfast, loyal and loves wholeheartedly. 😍 #favoritehero #austeninaugust

What a fun fast read I loved it of course not to obvious on the connection to Jane Austen but there definitely there so this is a put on your tbr list if you haven‘t read it 😋📖 thank you so much @staci.reads I loved it 😍😋

Day 29 #FallIntoBooks #crush Not to be super predictable 😀but my main bookish crush (I'm picking fictional because I picked Neil Gamin the last time for this prompt!) 😍😍😍remains Mr. Darcy--and he is always Colin Firth in my head. ❤️If I can't have him I could be happy with Captain Wentworth, Colonel Brandon or Mr. Knightley. Jane Austen wrote some crush-worthy leading men & these actors were my favorite on-screen portrayals. 😘❤️

#90sinJuly #OneWeek This prompt made me think of these three books that each have a setting of a Jane Austen-inspired vacation where everyone pretends to live a Regency life for a week (or more). One part of me thinks this would be fun, but my inner-introvert thinks it would be hell on earth (stuck in costumes with people I don't know?! ) even for one week. Can we just send Mr. Darcy, pretty dresses & an unobtrusive ladies maid to my house?! 😆👍

A modern adaptation of P&P with the added bonus of the main character being on a Jane Austen bus tour. Good fun and light-hearted.

This was a really quick read; light hearted, feel good - time traveling to go and meet Mr Darcy (what could be better than that!?!....hello wet shirt! 😜)
