Mansfield Park | Jane Austen
post image

On that event they removed to Mansfield; and the Parsonage there, which, under each of its two former owners, Fanny had never been able to approach but with some painful sensation of restraint or alarm, soon grew as dear to her heart, and as thoroughly perfect in her eyes, as everything else within the view and patronage of Mansfield Park had long been.

Mansfield Park | Jane Austen
post image
Pickpick

This was the last Austen novel I hadn't read. I enjoyed it, but I can see why it's not as popular as P&P or Emma. Fanny isn't as easy to root because she's so painfully reticent. The romance wasn't really there. I loved the drama & the double shocker at the end, but I wish living alone had been an option for Fanny (instead of the tacked on ending). I want to research the implications of Sir Bertram's business in Antigua. Probably bad, right? 😬

Clare-Dragonfly Yes, I‘m pretty sure there would have been enslaved people in his business in Antigua. ☹️ 6mo
lauraisntwilder @Clare-Dragonfly That's what I was afraid of. I think there's a nicer edition out there with an introduction/forward that goes into it a little. I wish I'd realized and sought out a better copy. 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly I‘m sure I‘ve read something explaining how Austen shows her abolitionist sentiment subtly in this book by how she talks about Antigua, but I don‘t remember what or where! 6mo

A bout thirty years ago Miss Maria Ward, of Huntingdon, with only seven thousand pounds, had the good luck to captivate Sir Thomas Bertram, of Mansfield Park, in the county of Northampton, and to be thereby raised to the rank of a baronets lady, with all the comforts and consequences of an handsome house and large income. #FirstLineFridays @ShyBookOwl

My Mansfield Park collection isn't as extensive as Pride and Prejudice but I do have three beautiful editions. All are from sets that #Pemberlittens gifted me. That makes them so special to me.

I'm really enjoying my reread. I've been swapping between editions. Today it's Wordsworth paperback. Love the fans on the cover. 💖💕

I had a hard time falling in love with Fanny Price especially after reading about Eliza and Emma but I did come around to Ms. Price and her other worldly goodness-even I had fallen for Henry Crawford!

Finished this a few weeks ago, the last Austen novel I had yet to read. I think it is my least favorite. Fanny is such a pathetic character and Edmund just seemed to settle for her in the end which was disappointing. I did enjoy Henry Crawford's character, he was more complex and devious. He was always stirring up trouble and I did appreciate that Fanny stood by her opinion of him through it all - the only time she seemed to be a strong character.

Day 2 of the #20in4 readathon saw a lot of #audiocrocheting - working on my temperature blanket
I finished one audiobook and made progress in the tagged. Mansfield is the only Austen I still haven't read so I'm finally tackling it. I'm about halfway through and I absolutely hate Mrs. Norris but Sir Thomas is surprisingly growing on me.

My bestie re-reading Mansfield Park at my urging. 😂🤣 Who agrees with her, #PemberLittens?

Andrea313 @ravenlee @sprainedbrain I get it, honestly. Fanny doesn't have much to recommend her throughout and Edmund is terrible. Yet...I'm drawn in by her strength in her own convictions. I hope we have another group read soon so I can re-evaluate. I did confess to my friend today that maybe my recent deep love for it was due to a pandemic-induced leave of my senses. 😂 2y
Ruthiella 🙋🏻‍♀️I keep voting for this to be the Austen book we read for #Pemberlittens but alas! It‘s my least favorite of all the novels but I want to appreciate it better. 2y
Andrea313 @Ruthiella I'm sure it'll come back around! There was a group chapter-a-day read about a year ago and something about the pace allowed me to really take a deep dive and consider every moment, and I came away absolutely loving it. I'll be curious to see if anything changes for you once the group takes it up again! 2y

Really disliked this book. The main character did not feel like a Jane Austen character at all.. a very submissive, quiet, conservative girl, contented with whatever sympathy she got, and at the end the love that she wanted was so whisy-washily decided that just made be angry 😅

Book Haul Pic 2! 💕📚💕

I added another Penguin Clothbound hardcover to my collection today! This time it's Madame Bovary, which I've been wanting to get for awhile now! I love the dark purple and orange cover! 😍 And I've been resisting this Mansfield Park Chiltern edition for ages now but I finally caved and got it today! The picture doesn't do it justice - it's exquisite! It's so pretty it actually makes my heart ache! ❤📖❤ #bookhaul
