Seasame Street is 50 this year!
‘Oh!' cried Marianne, ‘with what transporting sensations have I formerly seen [Norland‘s dead leaves] fall! How have I delighted, as I walked, to see them driven in showers about me by the wind! What feelings have they, the season, the air altogether inspired! Now there is no one to regard them.‘ ...
‘It is not everyone,‘ said Elinor, ‘who has your passion for dead leaves.‘”

This week's episode is all about the classics and how we feel about them. Will you weigh in on this debate? We can't wait to discuss it with you!
I bought a copy today because I‘ve never actually read it. I‘ve watched the movies and both miniseries of Sense and Sensibility but I feel like I‘m still missing out on bits of the story because I haven‘t read the book yet. Can‘t wait to dig in when I get the book delivered tomorrow. 📖 🤓
so-soAn abbreviated version of the classic story, complete with illustrations. It‘s cute, and would be good for people who are concerned about understanding the language or intimidated by the length of the original novel. One change made to the story is its narration by Margaret, the youngest sister. I liked that the back listed all the changes made, some history, and a small bibliography. #deweysoct book 3
Good morning, Cornwall ☀️🌊

Whoever wants to play, tag you‘re it!!
“‘ They mean no less to be civil and kind to us now,‘ said Elinor, ‘by these frequent invitations, than by those which we received from them a few weeks ago. The alteration is not in them, if their parties are grown tedious and dull. We must look for the change elsewhere.‘”

I know this is technically six covers, but I couldn‘t separate the set!
so-so3.5 stars. Not my favorite Austen, but still worth the read. Scandal and flirtation and a sweeping obsession with money. The characters are full of spunk and individuality. I‘m bemoaning the fact that my one “ship” of the book never came to fruition.
pickJust the Sense and Sensibility part this time, but I did read Pride and Prejudice with my daughter last school year! ❤️
• Having a hard time concentrating on reading right now (with baby on the way very soon), so the next best thing is book art!! Thanks to Artfolds, I was able to create this beauty today 📚🍁 I haven't felt well enough today to do much of anything. Happy Labor Day, Litsy family...from this expectant mama who prays today isn't HER Labor Day!! •
“Marianne was surprised and confused, yet she could not help smiling at the quiet archness of his manner, and after a moment‘s silence, said -
‘Oh, Edward! How can you? - But the time will come I hope - I am sure you will like him.‘”
Thanks for the tag, @SilversReviews !
1. Of course, I had to tag a Jane Austen! It was the first one that popped into mind.
2. Hmmm...not sure. Probably having a better read on people, and really knowing when someone is truly genuine versus feeding you a line. Speaks to a lot happening IRL for me at the moment. 🤷🏻♀️

4. Errands! And gearing up for vacay next week!
5. You‘re welcome to join the fun! #Friyayintro
I have really come to love Rosamund Pike's readings of these two wonderful books! I'd love to hear her take on Persuasion next; what about you? #AustenInAugust2019 #AudioAusten

pickFor all my Love of Pride & Prejudice; I must say that Sense & Sensibility has one of the best Literary Heroes - Colonel Brandon. Now when I read this Classic I always see him as the perfection that is Alan Rickman from the movie. Colonel Brandon is a quiet unobtrusive man for the most part. However, when you need a Hero he always comes through. 💙💙💙💙💙

Life is complete when hearts meet
Nearly all of Jane Austen's heroines (the exception may be Fanny Price) want to say to the villains #dontmarryher, marry me! #ayupaugust @Cinfhen @squirrelbrain
The further I get into S&S, the more I realize how perfect Alan Rickman was for Colonel Brandon 😭😍
Finally got 2 new copies of my favorite author‘s books— Jane Austen!!
pickSuch a good choice for #eshaverbookseller classics book club, Tequila Mockingbird !
pick4 hours and counting for the #readathon
Finished up S&S for probably the 15th time and still can‘t stand that conniving Lucy Steele....grrrrr.
Settling in for #readathon time. I bet Jane Austen would enjoy Cheetos...
August‘s classic pick for our Tequila Mockingbird bookclub is one that I‘ve read countless times and love. Reading it is like hanging out with a good friend.
pickHere is my Classics wrap up for July. It was a lot of good books this month! #classics #wrapup

pickAnother Austen checked off! This was very similar to pride and prejudice for me. I adore Austen‘s sarcastic wit, she truly was a rebel of her day.
pickHit my 12 hour goal (12 hours and 45 minutes to be exact) for #24in48 and my fourth finish is “Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen... this was my first time re-reading an Austen novel and I am thrilled that it was even better the second time around. Witty, romantic, and atmospheric!
Welcome to Hour 33 of #24in48, which for many of our US readers is roughly the start of Day 2. Quick check-in to see how things are going; we've seen a few people already hit 24 hours (amazing!) and some others with big plans for today. If you're not going to hit 24, that's cool too! Remember, this is all about making time and space for reading. (And don't forget to hop over to 24in48.com to see if you won one of this hour's door prizes.)
My audiobook for this #24in48 is “Sense and Sensibility” by Jane Austen (also fulfilling my #JaneAustenJuly challenge). This is my second time reading S&S but my first time listening to it as an audiobook. I love how many classics I can find as audiobooks on YouTube thanks to Librevox!
pickAnother EXCELLENT Audible Originals — I think I‘m addicted to these things

My turn to work Saturday at the library. This is the view from my window. Working on finally reading the only Austen I have yet to read. 😀 Looks like we're in for quite a storm!
This is from a little learners edition of Sense and Sensibility. 😂😂😂
Hey Littens,it‘s been kind of a crappy day.The work being done at my house turned out to have problems and took much longer to resolve , just feeling a little blue , & have had little time for #24B4Monday
But now , I put on some soft yoga music ,looked at the shelf in this photo & remembered I can get back to reading tonight & reading lovely Littens posts .Reading can be a joy & a refuge,I will put away the irritations of the day & relax.🧘♀️
#NeverEver have I been as behind reviewing books as I have been of late between battling slumps, everyday hecticness and poor time management. Hoping to have reviews up of the pictured books (all Picks!) soon.

The older I get the more I think that Marianne Dashwood should have let Colonel Brandon love her from the beginning.

pickI got this as a daily deal from Audible. Rosamund Pike was the perfect narrator. I normally would have found the husband-hunting antics of Elinor and Marianne extremely tedious, but Ms. Austen‘s snark saves the day. Overall, a lovely way to spend the train ride on our way to Chicago.
Recently started with Sense and Sensibility on audio. Rosamund Pike's narration is exquisite.
Much of the past two weeks were crappy, dragging me into a slump, but I'm much better now & hoping to be more productive. Really missed being on Litsy!
#bookmail! S&S is my least favorite Austen, but I saw this #PenguinClassicsDeluxeEdition cover and had to have it. Yes, I have five copies of Persuasion already, but I don‘t have an annotated edition and I love this cover, too. I fear I will have to collect all of the annotated Austens. Dang it. #bookaddict #noshame #wellmaybealittle #cantstopwontstop #austenaddict
Sooo technically it‘s Saturday now, but since I haven‘t been to bed yet I think it still counts 😉
1. Aquarius ♒️
2. Made my monthly budget today for work 🙌🏼
3. Tagged. Not so much “DNF” as “still in the works 2 years later”... haven‘t given up on it just yet!
4. Visit to the pet store to buy the cutest bunny carob Easter eggs 😍 and then watching le sis play netball.
5. @BooksbyBJThompson @PamelaStewart hi there 👋🏼 😊
#friyayintro
pickI‘ve been partway though this book for MONTHS, so I finally got the audio version and started over. That did the trick 🤗 I was surprised by how much this book felt like a first version of Pride and Prejudice, since they were so similar (with a few major differences, of course). But I really liked it, and I‘m glad I finally finished it!
Day 18: #awkward
Playing catch up again on #quotsymar19...
