We’re gonna watch Pride & Prejudice because we are home alone tonight and have no other plans. This might open a new set of memes for me. #prideandprejudice #janeausten

Once he righted the wrongs, she accepted and married him! So, he's not incorrect here. What do you think? #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #JaneAusten @romancelandia

A white image. In the top half, in black text, it says, "Dear Diary, Elizabeth said I was the last man she'd ever be prevailed upon to marry. She didn't say she'd never marry me-just that I'm her last option. There's still a chance. -F. Darcy." Below the text is an image of Darcy writing at a desk.

Since moving to town just over a year ago and so not travelling to work by train, the time I spend reading has almost totally disappeared, but I just finished the book on Lynch I was re-reading and have started this from the (now just up the road) library. Good stuff. #JaneAusten

We know that her father was educated at Oxford, Jane and her siblings were given free access to her father's library, and she had some, albeit limited, formal education.

Beige background. At the top of the image is the words, in black text, "Question of the week:" Below the text is a Georgian era woman drawing. She is sitting in a chair with a table where her left arm is resting. To the right of the drawing is the words, in black text, 'How did Jane Austen's family influence her writing?"

With the celebration of the 2005 movie, I haven't seen much from Joe Wright, but this is an excellent look at his history, his ideas behind the movie, and his thoughts on the longevity of the movie.

"There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others.
My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me."

Finished my #JaneAusten #Reading with #NorthangerAbbey - VERY funny in places, especially early on & some insightful asides about women & their treatment, as in the screenshot it did enough to ensure it did not come in last in my affections.

A quote from Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen, as follows

The quarrels of popes and kings, with wars or pestilences, in every page; the men all so good for nothing, and hardly any women at all

I simply LOVED this takedown of a very anodyne word in #NorthangerAbbey but it would have been nice if she'd gone all the way back to its earliest English meaning. 😀

"it is a very nice word indeed!—it does for every thing. Originally perhaps it was applied only to express neatness, propriety, delicacy, or refinement;.... But now every commendation on every subject is comprised in that one word.”" #JaneAusten #bookstodon @bookstodon

I picked up an ebook today called The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet. It’s a sapphic romance in which Charlotte Lucas and Mary Bennet presumably get involved after the demise of Mr. Collin’s.

It’s got some accuracy issues regarding the Collin’s household but I can probably live with that. I likely won’t do a full review but obviously #PrideAndPrejudice fans need to know it exists.

Particularly those of us who have always held that Charlotte was in love with Elisabeth. :blobcathearthug:

I know that every person and their canine has probably already read #NorthangerAbbey , but I'm #Reading it for the first time, and it's freakin' hilarious! 😂 The LONG '4th wall' rant about the contempt for novelists had me in stitches. #bookstodon
#JaneAusten @bookstodon

Excerpts from Northanger by Jane Austen, as follows

Alas! if the heroine of one novel be not patronized by the heroine of another, from whom can she expect protection and regard? …

 I cannot approve of it. Let us leave it to the Reviewers to abuse such effusions of fancy at their leisure, and over every new novel to talk in threadbare strains of the trash with which the press now groans.

 Let us not desert one another; we are an injured body. …  while the abilities of the nine-hundredth abridger of the History of England,.. are eulogized by a thousand pens,—there seems almost a general wish of decrying the capacity and undervaluing the labour of the novelist, and of slighting the performances which have only genius, wit, and taste to recommend them.
