I‘m so glad to be rereading Northanger Abbey with the #PemberLittens. I love my fancy Folio Society edition and think Val McDermid hits the nail on the head in this first paragraph of her introduction.
Okay, #Pemberlittens! I started a day late but I‘m all caught up now. Let‘s see if I like this one more now than I did thirty years ago. 😆 I didn‘t necessarily dislike it back then but it wasn‘t one of my favourites.
And here‘s a #littlebrasshand for you @rubyslippersreads . 😉

Looking forward to the #Pemberlittens chapter-a-day of Emma!
Here we go!! I am LOVING the Folio Society cover!
In Chap 1, we meet Catherine Morland, and we find out all the things she cannot do:
🌹 can‘t dance
🌹 can‘t play the pianoforte
🌹 can‘t draw
🌹 not so great at French, writing or any scholarly subject
But she does love to read books that contain no useful knowledge, and rolling down hills, so I like her already. 😄

Okay, #Pemberlittens, I have chosen my bookmark and I‘m joining in for the #ChapterADay!
I haven‘t done a reread of this in years. ❤️

I did not sleep well last night, which is going to make for a rough day. So I am giving myself permission to read ahead. Sorry, chapter a day folks! I am still taking notes by chapter, so should be able to follow along with the discussion. #PemberLittens #foliofreaks
