panI read this book ages ago. I'm guessing back when it was first released. It's been on my All Things Austen Shelf since then. After reading some Goodreads Reviews I have a vague memory of it. Decided to reread to see if it deserved to be on my Forever Shelf.
1️⃣ the Cover. Why is this person wearing what looks like 1950's clothes when it's setting is Modern Day and Time Traveling to Jane Austen's day? It makes no sense what so ever.⬇️
Yes it's September but the last from my #AusteninAugust 2022. But I'm a #PemberLittens so it's all appropriate to be ready Austenesque.
Read it ages ago. After looking at Goodreads Reviews I vaguely remember it. Want to see if it's still worthy to be on my #ForeverShelf.

At first I was not as engaged as I remembered being with the first in the series,Pride and Prescience.The middle with the transformed Mr. Dashwood,& his appalling shenanigans,(at times ridiculous)went on too long. I did enjoy the supernatural pieces, & the theme of reason v intuition. I wish we had an in between pick & a so-so. This feels somewhere in between.

Starting this today. I am trying to balance reading my library books and my TBR books. I just finished a book from my TBR, so now it is time for. Library book.
pickFinal installment of Darcy's story. I really enjoyed this one! I loved being able to see his reaction to Elizabeth's words and how he comes to terms with his faults and tries to become a better man. Also his relationship with Georgiana was so wonderful. I liked how he went from being her guardian to trusting in each other as confidants. Definitely a lovely series to accompany my beloved Pride and Prejudice ❤️
pickThe 2nd book in this Darcy trilogy takes place in the time between his visits to Netherfield and Rosings. It delves into his growing feelings for Elizabeth and his struggle between duty to his family and desire for her. It was interesting to see this perspective since in P&P his strong feelings seem to come from nowhere. A lot of his time is spent trying to get over her in a gothic castle with some sketchy school friends and mysterious happenings
pickI discovered this series on Kindle unlimited. It's Pride and Prejudice written from Darcy's point of view. I thought it was really well done. I liked the insights into his perspective. This is a trilogy in all and this first one ends after he convinces Bingley to leave Netherfield for London. I'm looking forward to reading the rest.
pickAmerican bookstore ninja/Darcy fangirl runs into Mr. Darcy in modern times on his own turf. Hi-jinks ensue. Full review here: https://wp.me/p9KtkP-ks #amreading #bookworm #bibliophile #bookish #booknerdigans #bookblogger #tsundoku #greatreads #readmorebooks #coolgirlsread
so-soI know I enjoyed this Pride and Prejudice retelling when I first read it 20 years ago, but I didn‘t care for the audiobook reread much. The narrator is annoying and I had forgotten the whole specialty cravat tying subplot, which is, quite frankly, ridiculous. An easy read, but mostly fluff and nonsense, and really easy to tune out while listening. I doubt I‘ll reread the rest of the trilogy. I recommend reading the original instead.
