Last night I finished my 72nd and last book of 2025. I‘ll do all the fun stats and wrapups later. For now I want to mention one quirky thing that I track just for grins and giggles.
The oldest book by far that I read this year was Emma. Thank you #PemberLittens for the kick in the pants! This also means that I‘ve now read all six of Jane‘s novels. Emma was not my favorite!
pickI squeezed in one more for the #JaneAustenThenandNow challenge with the #Pemberlittens. This one is the most loosely-based adaptation of the books I have read in this series. Just like the other ones, it could have used more editing to tighten it up. It's much longer than it needs to be and moves slowly. Still, a sweet romance and fun characters. @Crinoline_Laphroaig. This leaves Persuasion and an adaptation to finish up!
#Pemberlittens everything I read for #JaneAusten250. 😊
#JaneAustenThenAndNow
pick#Pemberlittens my last read for #JaneAusten250. Been saving Sanditon for the end of the month. It's been a lovely year rereading everything Jane wrote. I'm reading from the gorgeous new edition illustrated by Marjolein Bastin, includes Sanditon, early novella Lady Susan, another unfinished work The Watsons and the 3 Volumes of Juvenilia. Reading all these has been a perfect companion to Jane‘s 6 main novels.📖
#JaneAustenThenAndNow
A contemporary Pride and Prejudice/Sense and Sensibility mash-up, with Bingley subbing for Edward Ferrars. I'll give this a low pick, because I did start to get invested in it towards the end... and because Gilliland's Darcy retains a bit of his charm. Also, Willoughby as a classic sensitive new age guy is a hoot. The non-linear story telling is kind of confusing and I liked the first book better.

pickExtended family is gone, and everyone remaining is in a food coma or napping after our annual Christmas day brunch, so I'm catching up on this month's books. I finished my reread of Emma for #Pemberlittens #JaneAustenThenandNow, and I loved it as much as ever! I'm resigned to the fact that I'll have to finish the last 3 books of the challenge in the new year. @Crinoline_Laphroaig
