2 posts | 5 read | 5 to read
Fledgling illustrator and Darcy fanatic Kay Ashton settles in the seaside town of Lyme to finish her book, The Illustrated Mr. Darcy, when a film company arrives to make a new adaptation of Persuasion. Kay is soon falling for the handsome bad boy actor playing Captain Wentworth, but it's the quiet screenwriter Adam Craig who has more in common with her beloved Mr. Darcy.

An interesting chart from JASNA about the wealth of Austen‘s characters. Just in case Mr. Darcy wasn‘t already dreamy enough for you, he‘s also a billionaire. 😂

TheAromaofBooks Oooo this is interesting! I love things like this that help put those stories in perspective! 2y
LeahBergen Cool! 2y
CrowCAH Wow, that‘s a lot of money!!! 2y
CoverToCoverGirl Interesting! 2y
mabell Oh my 😳 I am curious about the numbers though (I‘ll have to read the article) - Catherine‘s dowry in the few millions is nothing to sneeze at and the Bates‘ income doesn‘t sound impoverished. But I guess that would still require strict housekeeping to pay for servants and home, etc. 2y

The moment I finished A Weekend with Mr. Darcy I was back on my computer downloading the next two in the series from my library.

For the record, did not know it was the start of a series and immediately squealed when I realized it. Give me all of the Jane Austen spin-offs always.
