So fun! Jane Austen is great! I love Sherlock, he is such a beautiful pup! Beautiful library too!

Beautiful Lassie doggie

p&P the perfect book -YES! SO true about their love being genuine and not shallow and physical. ❤ I, too, am in my Jane Austen era. I never left it. 😂

Yes, P&P is just so good!!!

Yay!! Part ll ! 🎉

Yes, the BBC adaptation is the best!

Ahhhh part 2!! Loved these JA vlogs!!! And yessss love how she wrote romance - the relationships were built on something stronger than just physical attraction. I wish some modern authors would take a note or two lol...

I'm so glad you loved it!!! 😍

Thank you for sharing your time with us 💙 I share the joy with you about the 1995 BBC version 😍😍. I started Pride and Prejudice !!! Until next time, happy reading 📚📖

I've never read Austen, but I've seen quite a few of the adaptations. But you've made me very interested in reading Pride & Prejudice.

Once you finish reading Jane Austen’s major novels, I would recommend reading, “The Murder of Mr. Wickham”. It’s a fun mystery series.

I don’t think I’ve heard of that one. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm so glad you loved Pride and Prejudice! It's amazing. I've seen a lot of adaptations but the 1995 BBC one is the only one that I love.

@@bethanybringsbooks yes. It's also good. Actually, I think it's even closer to the book. I don't like the acting as much. Particularly Darcy. But it is well done!

@bethanybringsbooks yes, it is good. The end is a bit rushed. It's like they ran out of budget and had to cram a bunch at the end 😂 but yeah, Darcy in particular was a bit flat.

offensive proposal 😂

You mentioning that Austen showed a non-physical love story with P&P makes me think that it’s why the book starts out making a HUGE deal about Elizabeth being “tolerable but not handsome enough” 🙃 Shows Darcy’s deeper love that grew you are talking about not determinant on looks 💙💙💙

@@bethanybringsbooks it’s been yearsss since I read P&P and then watched that version. I only want to watch the most accurate now and that’s why I haven’t watched it or any other since. Which one is most accurate- do you know? I like it when they are almost word-for-word like the Mansfield Park one we talked about and ONLY the 2009 Emma one.
