Good & bad news for #JaneAustenJuly I started with Pride & Prejudice 😍, then went on with Pride & Premeditation, but I felt Lizzie was not "my Lizzie". The murdered person was not very interesting and there was not much info to pick my curiosity so I got to chapter seven, realised I didn't care and decided to DNF it 😢 I still think the book has potential, but maybe I had P&P too present in my mind or maybe it was not the right time for me?
Then I picked The Other Bennet Sister... Oh my! This one has been so good and satisfying! It really gets you into P&P setting and context to tell us the story of Mary. I'm on chapter 60 and have 250 pages to go, so it can still go either way, but I'm hoping for the best because it truly deserves it.

Kinda of tired, stayed up late last night re-reading #PrideAndPrejudice. Mr. Darcy had just called on Elizabeth. I couldn't leave them in such distress all alone, all night, could I?

I'm hoping to read The Other Bennet Sister and Pride and Premeditation for #JaneAustenJuly and I thought I would start with a re-read because any excuse to read this book is a good one 😍

I'm reading the stunning digital edition from @gutenberg_org you can get it here:
