Jane Eyre | Charlotte Brontë

I am really loving my re-read of JANE EYRE. What was going to say? My love? My darling? My Jane? The unknown is what is so swoon-worthy. #swoon

That Kind of Guy | Talia Hibbert

Talia Hibbert does it again. Zach and Rae gave me all the feels. While I'm bummed for this series to be over, it definitely goes out with a bang (lol pun intended).

Born to Be Wilde: The Wildes of Lindow Castle | Eloisa James

pick

My week has sucked completely.
Thank goodness I had this book. Eloisa James never disappoints! This is book three in the series so i don‘t want to accidentally spew spoilers. If you want a great binge read for the Labor Day weekend read this series. Seriously!

mabell I hope you have a better week next week! Thank goodness for books! 😄 11mo

EloisaJames Im sorry about the suckage! But very glad if Born helped!! 11mo

Pride and Prejudice | Jane Austen

#heyjune #iwanttoholdyourhand
My absolute favorite scene in this movie, when Darcy helps Lizzie into the carriage... so much chemistry, so much said without words.... #swoon 💕
#unpopularopinion time.... I like this film adaptation WAY better than the BBC/Colin Firth one.... 😊

Cinfhen, GypsyKat

erzascarletbookgasm 🙌❤️ 14mo

Librarybelle While my favorite version is the Colin Firth version - I think it follows the book the closest- I fully appreciate MacFayden‘s Darcy. He‘s very swoon worthy too! And, you‘re right about the chemistry in that version...it‘s so good...I pick up another detail every time I watch it. 14mo

writerlibrarian So much ♥️♥️♥️♥️ 14mo

Melissa_J This is my favourite adaptation, too! 14mo

Cinfhen Confession....I haven‘t seen ANY of the P&P films 🙈 14mo

emilyhaldi Me neither @Cinfhen !!! Perhaps I should try this one but tbh I really don't like Kiera Knightley 🙄 14mo

Cinfhen Oh wow @emilyhaldi we might be the ONLY 2 people on Litsy NEVER to have seen a P&P film 😱 14mo

KarenUK @emilyhaldi @Cinfhen I wasn‘t much of a Keira fan either until I saw this movie.... she does make a great Lizzie.... and the music and scenery is gorgeous... 😍 14mo

Cinfhen You‘re actually selling it to me, Karen 🧡 14mo

Dragon Just rewatched this one on Netflix , all the feels ! 💕 14mo

Ddzmini Yes 😋 14mo

readinginthedark I enjoy this one but don‘t feel it‘s a faithful adaptation at all. I‘m picky, though; Charlotte‘s character in this version was just totally wrong. But I like it as a more artistic version than the others, and I agree that this moment is 💗 14mo

sprainedbrain I‘m with you! This is my favorite adaptation and Matthew Macfadyen is my Darcy. 😍 14mo

Jude Law | Alex Hannaford, John McVicar

#HeyJune starts today with one of the most iconic Beatles song ever #HeyJude 🎧🖤Here‘s my favorite Jude, who‘s been in several book to movie adaptations 🙌🏻🤩

GypsyKat

Kimberlone I love your theme this month! I am terrible at keeping up with photo challenges, but the Beatles are my favorite ever, and I might just have to try and play along with this one. Plus, it would give me a chance to show off my Beatles swag and books. 14mo

Cinfhen Just pop in whenever the mood strikes!! Would love to see your Beatles swag 😍😍😍and the creative playlist comes from @GypsyKat 🙌🏻💕 14mo

Cinfhen Look at that face @Cathythoughts @GypsyKat #swoon #judeLaw I agree; the Anna Karenina movie looks really good!!! 14mo

Tiyas7 Love Hey Jude...It's the first Beatles song I ever heard!!! One Song and I Fell In Love With Them Forever 14mo

TrishB We definitely all think the same sometimes 😁 14mo

Lidia Great idea to do this with Beatles songs! ❤️️ 14mo

Cinfhen Yes!!! The Beatles certainly deserve an entire month @Tiyas7 @Lidia 🎼🎤🎹 14mo

erzascarletbookgasm Hey,I like your choice of Jude! 👍❤️ 14mo

Cinfhen Thanks @erzascarletbookgasm 💕💕 14mo

BarbaraBB I received an email that my parcel has been delivered to the mailman, so it should arrive soon now - finally!! 14mo

eanderson Oh my!!! Perfect! Jude Law... yes! 14mo

Cinfhen Thanks sooo much @BarbaraBB I did check beginning of this past week & i was told it was still in customs!!! Jeez, they are REALLY making me sweat this out ❤️ 14mo

Cinfhen Right??? @eanderson He‘s a total hottie🔥💥🔥 14mo

Kalalalatja 😍😍😍😍 14mo

KarenUK @Cinfhen @Cathythoughts I loved the Anna Karenina movie.... it‘s an unusual adaptation- very theatrical and stylized... visually gorgeous 😍 14mo

KarenUK @Cinfhen My dad met Jude Law at a funeral recently, and said he was so kind, and a real gentleman... 14mo

Cinfhen OMG!! @KarenUK I would have passed out!!!! And movie does look very theatrical ~ costumes look spectacular (edited) 14mo

erinreads Great choice for a Jude! I used to be OBSESSED with this man. 🔥 I dragged multiple people with me to see him as Hamlet on Broadway multiple times in 2009. Even made my husband do some ~light~ stalking with me since he was staying a block away from our hotel in Washington Square. 😬 (edited) 14mo

writerlibrarian Clever choice 😁 14mo

Cinfhen Hahahaha @erinreads you clearly have wonderful taste in men 😜and light stalking is NOT sketchy behavior 14mo

Cinfhen Thanks @writerlibrarian 😘 14mo

emilyhaldi Keepin it creative over here!! 14mo

Cinfhen C‘mon @emilyhaldi is there REALLY any other Jude!???! 14mo

rabbitprincess I really enjoyed him and RDJ in Sherlock Holmes 😊 14mo

GatheringBooks such an eye candy, this one. 14mo

GlassAsDiamonds Must admit that I enjoyed his Watson better than RDJ‘s Holmes (but these on repeat are often my airplane viewing!! 😊😊😊😊). 14mo

Anna Karenina | Leo Tolstoy

When this beauty arrived in the mail, I was shocked! It turns out I had unwittingly opened a birthday present early. (Whoopsie! Thanks, Mom!) It has such an understated, but striking #cover and the illustrations are beautiful, too. A gift like this makes me feel very special.

batsy That just made my heart beat faster #swoon 😍 1y

Moray_Reads The cover is almost enough to make me but it. Almost 😣 1y

Cinfhen YOU are VERY special 💗happy early bday 1y

rohit-sawant Oh, that's fabulous! 1y

saresmoore @Moray_Reads It‘s not THAT pretty. And the spine is such a boring shade of brown, so... 😬 Am I helping or hurting? 1y

saresmoore @batsy Exactly my reaction when I opened it! Doubly so since I realized immediately that I had opened a birthday gift by mistake. 😳 1y

saresmoore @Cinfhen Thank you! ♥️♥️♥️ 1y

saresmoore @rohit-sawant I‘m so impressed by the Folio Society editions. I‘m a fan of everything but the price tag! 1y

Moray_Reads @saresmoore I think I'll be okay. I don't like the book and that *just about* staves off the need to own the Folio edition 😧 1y

saresmoore @Moray_Reads 😂 I wish I couldn‘t relate, but I own quite a few beautiful copies of classics I don‘t like! 1y

kathedron That is gorgeous! 😍 1y

ValerieAndBooks What a lovely (early) birthday gift!! 1y

LeahBergen Wowza! 😍😍😍 But wait... who‘s the translator? 😆😆 1y

saresmoore @LeahBergen You know that‘s the first thing I checked! 😂 It‘s Louise and Aylmer Maude. I will most certainly be comparing it to the P&V that made me fall in love with this story! 1y

LeahBergen @saresmoore And, once again, I read this in the Garnett translation. 😄 1y

saresmoore @LeahBergen I think that‘s the one I read originally, too. Reading it in Pevear & Volokhonsky‘s translation was like reading a whole new book. I think it might be their best work of translation. 1y

Rush Me | Allison Parr

Today‘s theme for #RomBkLove is groveling. I LOVE a good grovel or maybe just a really good make-up scene. Over on Twitter a challenge came up for the heroine as the groveler and as I was scrolling through my books this one hit me. After they have a huge blow up where they both say things they regret, she woman‘s up and gets a press pass to the locker room after one of his games to plead her case. #swoon
