pickI love any Jane Austen spin-off, so this modern version was enjoyable. The author stuck with the same storyline but modernized it. He made Bingley a doctor and a reality TV star and I thought that Jane being a Yoga instructor was perfect. Darcy and Elizabeth‘s chemistry was good and sexy. My only criticism is, it attempted to add any prejudices the author could think of in the modern world. It did modernize it, but it felt forced in my opinion.
Ruh-roh! What say you, #PemberLittens? Is it truly time for another S&S? I have so many questions! Will they show us a Willoughby/Brandon duel? Am I wrong to wish for a scene of Robert self-importantly shopping for a toothpick case? And most importantly, will we get an Edward Ferrars who is a true mopey sadsack, as God and Jane Austen intended?? 😜 Link to article in the comments. #JaneAustenThenAndNow
I believe all the other #PemberLittens must have snagged this amazing Jane Austen book scene, because it doesn‘t show up even if the cart has over $150! I‘ll be sure to check my local Bricks & MiniFigs store to get a set! #LEGO
so-so#Pemberlittens I had issues with how Jonathan's dad the ORIGINAL Mr Darcy was portrayed. Because of that I gave it 3 stars on Goodreads. My full slightly spoilery Review in comments. 🎩

It is my 11th anniversary today. Hubby & I are watching this wonderful film with our sweet kitty napping beside us. I wouldn‘t have it any other way 💜

pick“In the early hours of the morning the house was dark and quiet. […] and Elizabeth lay in bed wide awake. Images of Mr. Darcy‘s face, his nod, and his tall, handsome demeanour flooded her thoughts. She knew that even if she were spared these thoughts by sleep coming upon her, he would invade her dreams. And when she did fall asleep just before dawn, he was there just as she had expected.”
pickRounded up to 5⭐️, this 4th book in series finds the Darcys, Tilneys and Bertrams knee-deep in family dramas/murders. Love this series!
4.5/5⭐️
