Chapter 16 (Volume II, Chapter IV):"In the course of the same morning, Anne and her father chancing to be alone together, he began to compliment her on her improved looks;" - Persuasion.
I think this cover has made Anne too glamorous but it is a gorgeous edition. ?

Chapter 13 (Volume II, Chapter I) "One man‘s ways may be as good as another‘s, but we all like our own best. And so you must judge for yourself, whether it would be better for you to go about the house or not.” Persuasion
Wise Words from Admiral Croft.
Another edition on my Wish List - Dover Thrift Edition paperback. Just love pattern on cover. Very autumnal. ?????

"no one so proper, so capable as Anne!”- Persuasion. Things go wrong and you need someone like Anne.
I've loved this little seating area I made that looks out over the kitchen garden. Perfect for early morning cups of tea and reading Jane Austen.
Need to make room for citrus trees to overwinter. Will definite bring back in the spring when citrus go back out to the patio. ?☀️??❄️

November walk inspired by yesterday's chapter. Had our first hard freeze in the morning. Afternoon was perfect for wearing my new Irish sweater and hat. Laphroaig scarf found awhile back on Ebay. I'm slowly replacing things like these that I lost in house fire. Love how they match this Persuasion.
Today we're off to the seaside (virtually) - "The young people were all wild to see Lyme."

Chapter 10 has inspired me to get out for a November walk this afternoon. Especially since it's cold & I have a new sweater.🍁🍂

Chapter 9 - "It was soon Uppercross with him almost every day." - Persuasion
Captain Wentworth is causing drama!
Tour of print editions ends w/ Wordsworth Classics. It has such amazing detail. I particularly love it because it was a gift from a Pemberlitten after the house fire. ???

Chapter 8. "They had no conversation together, no intercourse but what the commonest civility required. Once so much to each other! Now nothing!"
Anne and Wentworth always together but so far away.
Morning cuppa and a chapter from Word Cloud Classic edition. I love the quotes on the cover and it's a book that just feels good in your hands. ???

Chapter a Day Extra - I really enjoy having this on my Kindle for reference but I don't like reading from it. Annotations distract from the story. After I read my chapter in my print copy I go back and look to see what notes it has. ✍️📖📚
