Chapter 17: a nervous Lizzy is taking Sarah with her to Pemberley. #whatifjamescomesback #poorsarah #jaaaaames #pemberlittens #chapteraday #almostthere #jaaaames #whereareyou

Vansa This was a bit i didn't think rang true.Lizzy is confident enough to reject Mr.Darcy's proposal,I would understand some slight apprehension but she seems to diminish so much.She's portrayed as constantly nervous when it's really not in keeping with her character at all. 2y
julieclair I agree with @Vansa . This lack of confidence is uncharacteristic for Lizzy. 2y

BarkingMadRead @Vansa @julieclair I totally agree, it‘s not like her to care about that kind of thing! 2y
Bklover You are all right! I couldn‘t figure out what didn‘t feel right but you all nailed it. 2y
Ruthiella Yes. I resented a little how this book made me feel about beloved P&P characters. 2y
BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella I totally get that! I‘ve had a few moments where I wasn‘t too thrilled with how she portrayed them! 2y
CoffeeNBooks Is Sarah going to end up with Ptolemy, or is she going to wait for James?! Will James ever come back?! 2y
BarkingMadRead @CoffeeNBooks I really hope James comes back! I want Sarah and James together! 2y

Chapter 12: Mr Bennet is back without Lydia and everyone is in an uproar. Sarah wants to go find James but Mrs Hill convinces her to stay…… #mrbennetcaneathisapology #toolittletoolate #poorsarah #comehomejames #wickhambetternottouchpolly #thesechaptersaretooshort #enoughisenough #pemberlittens #chapteraday

CoffeeNBooks And NOW Mr. Bennett wants to be nice to Mrs. Hill and have her hold his hand?! 🙄 I love your hashtags! 🤣 2y
BarkingMadRead @CoffeeNBooks I knowwwwww I was so mad! Go gold your wife‘s hand, ya jerk! You had your chance! (edited) 2y
Bklover I did love Mrs Hill‘s speech to Sarah that began with “Don‘t be so bloody stupid!” A very telling speech that shows the pain that Mrs Hill has suffered. 2y
BarkingMadRead @Bklover definitely! And she really cares about Sarah! 2y

Chapter 11: Colonel Forster arrives with bad news, Mrs Hill becomes the latest victim of the Post Mistress, and Sarah asks the colonel if he‘s seen James….. #ihatethatpostmistress #colonelforstertoo #bullies #poorsarah #poormrshill #lydiaandwickham #rosemary #pemberlittens #shortchapters #chapteraday #wheresjames #tellusalready

CoffeeNBooks Poor Sarah, she finally worked up the nerve to ask Colonel Forster about James, and he was so rude to her about it. 2y
Vansa I found this excellent writing- seems perfectly in character for a colonel to not exhibit the slightest courtesy towards someone he considers his social inferior. 2y

Chapter 10: Jane sends Sarah to the post office with a letter to Lizzy, and Sarah asks if there are any letters for her…. #hatethatPOlady #sorude #bekind #poorsarah #pemberlittens #chapteraday #shortestchaptersever #letsgetthisstorymoving

CrowCAH Sarah is so hopeful! 2y
Bklover @CrowCAH Yes! And that she had the courage to ask. 2y
julieclair I feel like with every chapter, my comment is always the same. #poorSarah 2y
CoffeeNBooks @julieclair I agree, I just keep wanting to say, poor Sarah. And to be laughed at for even asking if there was anything for her. 😢 2y

Chapter 9: a letter arrives Express in the middle of the night, and Sarah hopes it‘s from James #itsnot #lydiaandwickham #poorlydia #mrsbennetswooning #poorsarah #comehomejames #pemberlittens #chapteraday #shortchaptersallweek

julieclair Poor Sarah. 2y
CoffeeNBooks I'm glad for Mrs. Hill that the letter wasn't about James- I think she thought the worst. But so sad for Sarah that she hasn't heard anything from him or about him. 2y
Bklover Still loving the hashtags ### 2y

Chapter 5: the Bennet girls are avoiding Mr Collins, prepping for the Netherfield Ball, and realize they need shoe roses. Since it‘s raining, Sarah has to go…… #poorSarah #nobodycaresaboutyourshoes #ptolemysighting #poorJames #bepatient #thebingleysleavesoonanyway #pemberlittens #chapteraday #parttwo

CrowCAH We should bring back the shoe roses; add some bling! 2y
CoffeeNBooks Poor Sarah having to go get the shoe roses in the rain. 😕 At least she was able to get a ride back with Ptolemy. Had James been watching for her the entire time, or did he just happen to be out there when she returned? 2y

julieclair I feel so sorry for James. He really has it bad for Sarah. And @CrowCAH I agree! Shoe roses would be a fun fashion accessory! Thanks for showing us what they look like, @BarkingMadRun . 😁🌹 2y
BarkingMadRead @julieclair I was curious as to what they looked like as well! So important that Sarah had to go into town in the rain! 2y
SarahBookInterrupted @BarkingMadRun yes, I always wondered what a shoe rose looked like but never took the time to put down my book and look it up. They are bigger then I imagined. (edited) 2y
MoonWitch94 @julieclair I agree! I do feel so sorry for James. While I like the dynamics between Sarah & Tol, I feel for James. 2y
BarkingMadRead @MoonWitch94 I feel that in my soul! Poor James, but also loving Sarah and Tol 2y
MoonWitch94 @BarkingMadRun It‘s so tough! 😩 2y
julieclair @MoonWitch94 @BarkingMadRun My gut tells me that James will win out in the end. I think Tol is a great guy, but I don‘t think think he is taking Sarah as seriously as she takes him. 2y
BarkingMadRead @julieclair I thought the same, mostly because we know the Bingleys never planned to live there forever. For him, this is harmless flirting 2y
julieclair @BarkingMadRun I actually wondered if Tol will even stay with the Bingleys. Now that he‘s in England, he‘s a free man. I‘m thinking he might strike out on his own. (edited) 2y

Chapter 4: Sarah spends the whole morning trying to “bump into” the new guy, and finally does…. 💩💩💩 #anotherrudeguy #literalpoop #poorsarah #shedidgetwhatshewantedthough #pemberlittens #chapteraday

CrowCAH He‘s a strong new guy! 2y
julieclair #poorSarah for sure. Definitely not the man of her dreams! 2y

Sparklemn I've been more caught up in Sarah's observations of the family -- like not thinking of Lydia and Kitty as two separate persons. I often thought that when reading the book. It was much easier to keep them straight in the film versions. 2y
BarkingMadRead @Sparklemn yes! I love her observations on the family! 2y
Bklover I thought it was funny that when she called Polly over to observe out the window that they were happiest that the new guy was sweeping the yard. (So they didn‘t have to) 2y
CoffeeNBooks I think Sarah thought she was going to be impressed with the new guy, but then was distinctly unimpressed by him when she did finally meet him. I chuckled at Mrs. Hill's response (or lack thereof) to Sarah's hurt shin. 2y
