Overall, I enjoyed this retelling of Emma. The ending to me seemed to be a very different tone from the rest of the book, which disappointed me a bit, but this is still a pick. I loved seeing Emma‘s passion for art shine throughout the novel and her convictions to stand on her own in certain situations - lots of growth. It was cute and light…great choice for #PemberLittens ! #JaneAdjacent
#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent Ch. 34-35: yay Emma! You finally stood up to Margo and gently told her to butt out. Good for you! And I‘m so glad that the “strings” conversation was had with Knightley. Finally, progress. Happy vibes ❤️💜
ch 12.6: what is this guy even talking about? #icanteven #talksomesense #ladiesandgentlemenofthejjjjjury #thebros #hashtagbrigade #pemberlittens
#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent 32-33: hmmm keeping secrets is never a good thing. Why is Emma so nervous about everyone knowing? Oh I‘m so glad things got cleared up with Nadine! That was a frustrating scene haha! Things are looking up. But wait…there‘s still the matter of them actually TalkIng and defining their relationship. And telling their family…this Sunday dinner is gonna be one for the books.
ch 12.5: yikes that escalated quickly #ivanmesseditallup #losthisdamnmindandconfessed #katyafreakedout #totakkyturnedonmitya #Gfreakedout #everyonegetsdraggedout #mityaissoscrewed #thebros #hashtagbrigade #pemberlittens
#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent 30-31: Well, even though I‘m sure a complicated conversation needs to be had, I‘m glad they finally admitted that they want each other. There were no declarations of love - yet. I‘m sure those are forthcoming. Things are going to change now no matter what.
ch 12.4: some good luck #alyosharemembersthesachet #katyatellsabouthisloantoher #Goutsrakitinashercousin #ivanisupnextthough #whatcouldgowrong #thebros #hashtagbrigade #pemberlittens
I intended to get caught up on a few chapters for the #PemberLittens on today's solo cafe date, but I got so sucked in that I finished the book completely. This has to be one of my favorite Austen adaptations. I love that this Emma fights back when Knightley lectures, and I love the career trajectory the authors set her on. The epilogue sets up the sequel (or companion?) novel really nicely, too, so I'm definitely going to have to check that out.
