#Pemberlittens finished this reading Jane Austen this Summer. Missing #chapteraday readalongs. I've still more #Austenesque on my shelves.

Emily of Deep Valley is another old friend.

This book is not in the system. I‘m giving it a pick because it‘s a quick read and imo enjoyable for anyone who likes Pride & Prejudice. This is a revision of the original story of sorts, with a series of very serious conversations being overheard during the story. It changes the outcome of P&P and is satisfactory imo. It‘s available on kindle unlimited. 3.5⭐️

One of last year's #austeninaugust reads. Definitely a #best for me. I loved watching a modern woman navigate life in Jane Austen's day. It's very timely-wimey. Ending gave me all the feels. 💙 #austenesque

sammisho I loved this one too! And I am really picky about ny austenesque picks. 6y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @sammisho Absolutely! There are some perfectly dreadful ones 6y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @sammisho My pick for worst is currently go to the #biglibraryread where Mr. Darcy is Rob Darcy.😩 6y
sammisho I almost read that one just to see how awful it would be! Rob Darcy??? That's horrible ! 6y

Pride and Prejudice and Jasmin Field is one of the worst #austenesque adaptations I've read. Bridget Jones, of course, remains the best. #austeninaugust

Crinoline_Laphroaig My worst would be the last #biglibraryread Western Retelling of Pride and Prejudice featuring Rob Darcy. 🤦‍♀️ 6y
Andrea313 @Crinoline_Laphroaig OMG that sounds too ridiculous to be real! Pretty sure I'd take a hard pass on that one. 6y

Mehso-so

Not the Worst but definitely not the Best Austenesque I've read. Had some fun moments and witty lines. Learned a lot about Darcy era men's clothing. But it did have some cringe worthy moments. "the entire skyline between her knees'. ?

Crinoline_Laphroaig @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Here's the full quote: "He went down on her and brought her to the brink while the city sparkled on the shoreline. Her back arched with an ache for more and she quivered watching him, intent upon her, so generous, so tantalizing with her legs wrapped around his neck and the entire skyline between her knees." 6y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled There is also sex w/ another character in public restroom of bar at top of Hancock building. As they're tearing clothes off, I'm thinking ewwww your going to put those back on after they've been on the floor. 6y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @CaramelLunacy I really was being generous with the So So rather than Pan. 6y
