#Pembeelittens It's time for #JaneAndTheExcellentReadalong discussion of Jane and the Canterbury Tale! This Jane Austen Mysteries Book Club is read at your own pace and FULL OF SPOILERS. We're counting down to the Release of Jane and the Final Mystery. If you haven't read the book, pop in anytime. Or tag me in your post to make sure I see your answers.

Mine are in the comments.

Crinoline_Laphroaig 1️⃣ Card game showing just how awful Curzon Fiske was and the reveal/confrontation with Murderer.
2️⃣ I really loved the relationship between Edward and Jane in this one. It's grown since we were last at Godmersham in Jane and the Genius of the Place.
3️⃣ Loved all the references to Pride and Prejudice.

Crinoline_Laphroaig And: "It was a wonder all three did not collide upon the path over the Downs in the dead of night, coming or going."

"Can‘t go shooting one‘s guests whenever they put a foot wrong, what? Very bad ton."

“Must you always complicate matters, Jane, with questions that are entirely unanswerable?”

Crinoline_Laphroaig 4️⃣ Mr Moore would probably bore me so much I'd struggle to stay awake. Which would be considered rude (heaven forfend)so I'd say Mrs Thane. No way you'd fall asleep with her screeching.⬇️ 1y

Crinoline_Laphroaig 5️⃣ Walk the Pilgrims Way. With 2 weeks that's 14km/8.5 miles a day. I think I could do that. But no camping! Would book a comfy room for each night. And stop in Chawton to visit Jane Austens House, The Big House and finish at Cassandra's Cup for tea.

Crinoline_Laphroaig 6️⃣ I googled the difference between tilbury and perch phaeton.

And while I knew what a young lady being out meant didn't know A gentleman being out "is one who has met a rival at twenty paces on a duelling ground,"

Crinoline_Laphroaig 7️⃣ While looking for background info at Stephanie Barron and Austenprose blogs I found out this was almost the last Jane Austen Mystery! Original publisher did want to continue but happily 3 years later the 12th Jane Austen Mystery was published

Crinoline_Laphroaig Speaking of #JaneandtheTwelveDaysofChristmas it's a favorite of mine. I usually read over the 12 days of Christmas. I'm planning something a bit different for July. Will post that next week.

I love revisiting 'what Jane calls “the gaieties” of the Christmas season two hundred years ago.' This one goes back on my #forevershelf. Later this month I'll be rereading #janeandthewaterloomap in anticipation of Feb 8th Release of #janeandtheyearwithoutasummer.

I've got 3 Readalongs going on right now. 🤪

#WanderingThroughWutheringHeights with Kindle, Print, but mostly Audible. My print copy wasn't in the database so I picked a specific one because it's a beautiful edition and so all my posts will be in the same Book Info.

Other #PemberLittens isn't Daily (schedule on @jenniferw88 profile) so I can read on less busy days.

#janeandthetwelvedaysofchristmas is winding down. Only 2 more days.

DivineDiana Finished it yesterday! I did not realize that there was a readalong for (edited) 3y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @DivineDiana not an organized Readalong. More a me deciding to read over the Twelve Days of Christmas. It did it last year as well. 3y

As an Auntie I wholeheartedly agree with this statement❣

The First Day: "The snow ceased to fall during the night, and it was a sparkling world that greeted us this Christmas morning." - Quite a different tale here in Oklahoma. Can't remember a time I've set outside on Christmas Morning. It's currently 64F/18C.
So my #literarytravels are taking me to ?? w/#janeandthetwelvedaysofchristmas & Georgie from #royalspyness.

Happy Christmas! ???

As an Auntie myself, I can get behind this theory. Day 1 and we're off to a Christmas House Party. 🎄 #janeandthetwelvedaysofchristmas
