so-soIt is a truth universally acknowledged, that a mother in possession of great wisdom, must be in want—nay, in need—of a daughter who will listen.”
Cute opening line but this mother was a horrible person. She was constantly verbally abusive to her daughter. And it was justified by her and other characters with I/She justs wants what's best for you. ⬇️
Besides #JaneandtheExcellentReadalong I want to read as many as possible of these. I've been saving Godmersham Park for #AusteninAugust. #PemberLittens

Looking for this old photo for #chawtonhousephotochallenge I'm doing on Instagram. Thought I would use for today's #Pemberlittens post. W/ #NorthangerAbbeyNovember is coming to and end. Time to make a Dec Stack. Will concentrate on P & Prejudice retellings I didn't get to in Oct since N Abbey retellings are scheduled for Jan. @sprainedbrain

pickI love how this takes Austen lore of Cassandra burning Jane's letters and spins a story around that. It's the perfect way to write Austenesque.Lovely to see Cassandra shine.

I bought book couple months back because I'd heard such good things about it. Saved it for my #austeninaugust read. It was just delightful. A perfect addition to my Forever Shelf. 💜💜💜💜💜

Most of my #PnPCovers books are second hand, found at used book stores and rummage sales. Each one is special.
My happy hour is the hours I get to read!
