“All must linger and gaze on a first return to the sea, who ever deserve to look on it at all.” Persuasion, Jane Austen

Jane Austen enjoyed the sea. You find a #Seaside setting most prominent in Persuasion & Sanditon

Here‘s a good article about Austen & the sea: https://austenvariations.com/what-the-sea-meant-to-jane/

Of the ten in the Barnes & Noble Signature Gilded Classics three of them are Jane Austen novels.

Sadly for me P&P is not one of them. Maybe they‘ll come out with it in time…

CrowCAH @Crinoline_Laphroaig yay, so glad you got a beautiful floral edition! (I agree. They definitely need to add P&P to the set.) 11mo
CrowCAH @Ruthiella I sure hope so! 🤞🏻 11mo

Today's little classic #bookhaul from my friends of the library bookstore! These covers are all lovely 😍

Happy to have found Persuasion. I'd like to read it before seeing the Netflix adaptation.

KristiAhlers I am disgusted with myself that I haven‘t read Anne Brontë yet. I really need to get that title and give it a read. 2y
brittanyreads Wildfell Hall has been randomly appearing in my life lately. When I saw it at the bookstore I felt I had to grab it. It feels like the universe is nudging it into my hands haha @KristiAhlers 2y
KristiAhlers @BrittanyReads agreed. So this is me going and looking for it 😃 2y

ravenlee I‘ve read and enjoyed all of these - but Persuasion is by far my favorite. It‘s my favorite Austen, actually. 2y
brittanyreads @KristiAhlers 😆 I hope it finds it's way to you! 2y
brittanyreads Good to know! I've actually never read Austen and Persuasion is often recommended less than Emma Or Pride and Prejudice to me. But the synopsis sounds great! I think I'll enjoy it too! 😊 @ravenlee 2y

Time to share a song! #PemberLittens My favorite musician, Unwoman, has written a beautiful song inspired by Persuasion. You can listen to it for free at Bandcamp: https://unwoman.bandcamp.com/track/we-love-longest-3

#Persuasion Chapter 15

I cannot wait to see Henry Golding as Mr. Elliot in the new Persuasion.

Until then, I‘ll just leave you with this. 😆 #PemberLittens

I can never forget this scene! The first time I read Persuasion it was my before-bed read. I woke up in the middle of the night with a nightmare and grabbed the book so I could calm down and go back to sleep. The very next paragraph I read was the one where Louisa falls! It‘s the most stressful scene in all of Austen and not exactly calculated to help me fall asleep 😂 #PemberLittens
