Thanks for the tag @ravenlee ! 😊
💠 Reading the tagged book with the #Pemberlittens
💠 I have it both on audio and in ebook from the library.
💠 I think it‘s probably ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
💠 I occasionally use the highlight function on the kindle but I don‘t write or underline in physical books. I sometimes use a sticky note when I want to keep track of a quote for later.
#ThoughtfulThursday
Taking a (well deserved) break from mommy's duties and organising an international wedding. Yes, that's a wine glass holder 🧖🏻♀️ Hopefully will catch up with #Pemberlittens
It could only be better if I had a Jane Austen reading me the first epistolary version of Sense and Sensibility
Chapter 12 - First Impressions
Have a picture of a very short Zebra Crossing for a very short chapter! 😂

Not sure if anybody already had the chance to post this, but just in case, these are the drawings mentioned of Mary Queen of Scots and Elizabeth made by Cassandra for Jane's "The History of England by a partial, prejudiced and ignorant Historian"
#Pemberlittens
I love that Austen, being specially accomplished at needlework decided to put this words in Darcy's mouth
#Pemberlittens
I have a lot to catch up with #Pemberlittens Chapter a Day.
Anyone else thought of the house of the Parkers in Sanditon and the road where Mr Heywood had the accident?
Chapter 9 - Youth, Beauty and Housekeeping!

Trying to catch up with #PemberLittens and I‘m confused - how did a monthly magazine that ran from Jan 1789-Mar 1790 tally sixty issues?
but in searching for this Jane of mine I have accidentally met a while generation of women; governesses spinsters sister in laws killed in child birth. Females who cheered Jane on in her triumphs & disasters her passage through life so smooth on the surface sharply marked by closed doors routes she could not take choices she could not make. Her Great contribution was to push those doors open a little bit for us inlater generations toslip through.
Chapter 4 - a girl's "accomplishments"

“It may seem to us that there is more to life than cross-stitch…”
Unfortunately! Am I right, #LitsyCrafters? 😂

Chapter 3 - boys, boys, boys! (and income)

Chapter 2 - a very cold winter and Jane's early years.

I‘m surprised Lucy had to learn from historical reenactors that swaddling is comforting and helps a baby sleep—not parents! My son was born the year after this book was published and swaddling was certainly strongly recommended without any indication that it is old-fashioned, just time-honored.
I‘m also intrigued by the idea of sending the kid out for 24/7 childcare during the toddler years 😆 #PemberLittens
Chapter One - Parsonages and Potatoes 😂😂😂

My grandmother gifted me some of her old crafting things including this set of embroidered pillowcases that she never finished. I've never tried embroidery before but thought I'd give it a shot, especially since it's this month's craft for #litsycrafters @Catsandbooks
#audiocrafting as I start the tagged book for the #pemberlittens readalong @jenniferw88
TODAY starts the buddy read of this book, starting with the INTRODUCTION (not Chapter One)!
It tells us of the importance of houses in Jane's novels and life, and also that everyone has their own version of Jane, and that this is Lucy's!

Had to catch up with two chapters tonight, but Lucy Worsley‘s writing is a delight. ❤️
#PemberLittens
Such a fun morning starting all of the May/June #pemberlittens selections!
Well I‘m ready for my various buddy reads in May! Super excited to read these! #BuddyRead #buddyread #pemberlittens #sundayBuddyRead @sprainedbrain @Librarybelle @TheBookHippie
#BookMail Just got this one in so I am ready for the #PemberLittens #readalongs starting in May. I‘ll be reading the hard copy of this one, use Serial Reader for Lady Susan, & I secured a library e-book for The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Now let‘s see if I can keep up! 📚📚📚🤷🏻♀️📚📚
#Bookmail! Tagged is for #PemberLittens next month, the top two are for the kiddo (both frequent library borrows she asked to own), S&T gives me all three, the Bardugo matches my King of Scars so maybe now I can actually read it (probably need to reread the first three, and read the other duology…), and the others just looked good. Book Outlet is dangerous…

The #jahome buddy read will start on the 7th May and will be a chapter-a-day (38 in total). #PemberLittens

Day 18: #Money
I bought this little coin purse when I toured Winchester Cathedral (where Jane Austen is buried).
(And I‘m quite enjoying all of our interpretations for these prompts! 😆😆)

#200PnPcovers @CrowCAH @mabell I‘ve yet to read Lucy Worsley‘s book on Jane but I‘m sure it talks about her #houses, or rather where she lived. Another for the TBR!

Views of the Abbey Gateway, Reading. The upper room was used as a classroom in Jane Austen's schooldays here.
I started this yesterday and am expecting to finish it on Monday or Tuesday

To generations of Austen worshippers, the site of Steventon Rectory is hallowed ground.

@ShyBookOwl
I really how the author looked at each of the homes that Austen spent significant time in and how they influenced the books that Austen wrote. My #april selection for #12booksof2021
pick4.5⭐️ I quite liked this book. It was really interesting to see how the homes that Austen spent time in influenced her writing, but also how her own experiences influenced her books. #2021 #bookreview #biography #nonfiction #janeausten #bookstagram #litsyatoz2021 #j #pemberlittens
This was my #bookspin book for March
I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.
This is day 134
#BooksToRead #TBRPile #TBRMountain
The world of Jane Austen‘s novels, seen in countless feature films, is domestic, well ordered and snug.
#firstlinefridays #pemberlittens
Anyone been to this in previous years or know anyone who has and can give me any advice? I.E hotels/costumes/general information.
I hope to go with a few friends this year as one of them is turning 60 and she loves anything to do with Jane Austen/regency period and thought this would be perfect for her.
Thank you in advance for your help. 😘 📚 📖
#PemberLittens this is an event for you!

pickI‘ve been an Austen fan my whole life, but only knew bits and pieces about her life, so I found this book very enlightening. It was also super readable and genuinely fun to read. I highly recommend it, especially for those just dipping their toes into Austen‘s life.
pickI COULD NOT LOVE THIS BOOK MORE! My utter excitement and genuine fascination at learning all I could about the life of one of my most favourite authors was completely satisfied by this brilliantly researched and entertainingly written book. Lucy Worsley is simply fantastic and brought to life Jane Austen, her family and the era that she lived through just wonderfully. I LOVED THIS BOOK.
