Ch.25/26: The review of P&P that says, "Just a bunch of people going to each other's houses" is spot-on today: the Gardiners visit! The officers come to dine! Jane goes to London! Miss Bingley (grudgingly) pays her a call! In the midst of it, her aunt warns Lizzy not to fall in love with Wickham and she's all, "Ehhh, can't make any promises." Then Charlotte asks her to come visit Hunsford and again she's like, "Yeah, no." (But of course she does.)

Ch. 23/24: Sir William announces Charlotte's engagement to Collins and the Bennet women just about lose their minds. Lydia is a total dick about it and Lizzy has to tactfully interject some well-wishes, and Mrs. B is livid. Then Caroline writes that their party won't return to Netherfield, and btw, Miss Darcy is just SO amazing. Jane tries to be calm but Mr. Bennet turns the whole thing into a joke (see the Reddit user below who clocked his ass).

Ch. 19/20: "Mr. Collins" and "marriage" are terrifying words when taken together but our chapters today are all about the man's quest for a wife. First he corners Elizabeth to render the worst proposal ever (at least until her next one) and she firmly turns him down- so he gets *really* petty and proposes to her best friend. Sure he's kind of the worst, but Charlotte will live in comfort and her children will eventually inherit Longbourn so ?‍♀️

Ch. 17/18: Oof, today's chapter's hits a real low point. Mr. Wickham is not at the ball which puts a damper on Lizzy's whole night, and then Mr. Darcy asks her to dance?! Totally flustered, she has no choice but to accept and the whole thing is awkward and passive aggressive as she tries to make sense of what Wickham has told her and he stonewalls her at every turn. Then the rest of the Bennets conspicuously act the fool, leaving Lizzy mortified.

Ch. 15/16: The ladies meet up in town with Denny and his hot-as-hell friend, Wickham. Elizabeth clocks some weird vibes between him and Darcy when the latter rolls up, but doesn't get the scoop until the next night. Wickham pours out the whole sordid tale in some very pretty language, all deference and faux-humility. You've to give it to him, he does a clever job of getting ahead of what Elizabeth knows and spinning the story to his advantage.

Ch. 13/14. Everyone's favorite pompous prig has arrived! Mr. Collins is here to drone on about his esteemed patroness, read a book of patronizing sermons at the ladies, and generally be a living, breathing reminder that they'll all be homeless someday. He also relays some of Lady C's best life advice, including, "Put some shelves in your closet" and "marry as soon as possible.” Mr. Bennet and I love to hate him but the Bennet women aren't charmed.

The days run on and Elizabeth is still sequestered at Netherfield, and girl just can't wait to pack up Jane and get home. She does get to engage in some solid verbal sparring with Darcy, though, and he begins to realize just how hard he's falling for her. Caroline continues her whole "look at me, pay attention to meeee!" game with Darcy and it's pretty satisfying to watch how he shuts her down. Finally, at last, the Bennets make their way home.
