The first movie that came to mind when I saw this cartoon is Netflix's redo of Persuasion, which SO MANY PEOPLE HATED because of the alleged "modernity." (I really like the movie, and I stand on this hill.) #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #JaneAusten @romancelandia
Elle does a great job of introducing the year of Austen and listing the best events to attend. The article is worth a read! https://www.elledecor.com/life-culture/a64178562/jane-austen-250-birthday-england-uk/ #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #JaneAusten @romancelandia

We see social mobility throughout Austen and the Brontës' work, from low social order to rich heiresses. Austen was very keen on telling the story of social mobility during her lifetime because she also lived it.

TellyVisions gives a great rundown of the history of the film, its plot, and when we can expect a US theater release.

When it comes to essays like this, I tend to skip around but this time, I read it from start to finish. Colm Tóibín on PERSUASION and Rebecca Kuang's humorous look at how PRIDE AND PREJUDICE shaped her family's life are both great reads. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2025/mar/15/much-darker-than-pride-and-prejudice-authors-pick-their-favourite-jane-austen-novel

A friend lived near Basildon Park, which played Netherfield in the 2005 P+P. I toured the home, and it was AMAZING. Since so much of the property was used in the 2005 version, the house had an exhibit celebrating the movie. (Basildon Park is NOT mentioned in the article.)

This question is familiar to me because I asked a variation of it a couple of months ago. I love the idea of living in a village like Meryton. What about you?

My social media feeds are raving about "Jane Austen's Bookshelf," which means I must push it up my TBR list!

I love seeing Austen's 21s C merchandising being discussed. A friend works for a company with over 20 Austen-themed items for sale. She's going to hook me up with Austen file folders!

Recently, I asked which Austen/Bronte character you would interview, and I still maintain that it would be Wentworth for me.

This is a fresh analysis of what Austen novels are appropriate for what circumstance you find yourself in. Honestly? The article is not wrong. (It also includes Austen's unfinished works in the list!)

Off the top of my head, not all first impressions are correct; patience can be worth it, and there is always hope, to name a few ideas. #AmReading #AmWriting @bookstodon #books #Bookstodon #WritingCommunity #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #EmilyBronte #CharlotteBronte #AnneBronte #Victorian @romancelandia #JaneAusten

Yes, this is from S+S, but I think it would have been better set in #Persuasion. What do you think?

This essay is an excerpt from the book "Jane Austen's Bookshelf." To sum up, Austen was inspired by many, many women writers from the 18th and early 19th centuries. Those writers are mostly forgotten, but this book brings them back to light.
