    Persuasion is my absolute favourite JA book. Minimal dialogue but oh so beautiful!

    I love them all! But it as to be a tie between persuasion and pride and prejudice. ❤ I love the mug! 😂

    Sense and Sensibility/ Persuasion but I adore Northanger Abbey too. Lucy Worselys' book on Jane is superb, she's a wonderful writer as well as broadcaster. Happy Anniversary, what a beautiful bookish rose.

    Congratulations on your and Ben's anniversary! MP is my favourite, no questions asked. I do relate to Fanny the most, maybe that's why - we had a comparable childhood and it affected our personalities in similar ways (I don't believe all of Fanny's meekness and passivity are naturally hers). I love MP because it shows a variety of personalities in both good and bad light, and how the excess in either direction can be. For me, JA is an author whose works I like better and better the more I read them!

    Any husband/partner who rather buys a „silly whatnot“ than having to deal with the „if onlys“ is not only smart but definitely a keeper! ❤
    The joy you radiate in this video is absolutely contagious, Claire! Also, you should most definitely wear a bonnet every day, it suits you so well. 👑
    My favorite novel is Persuasion-Pride and Prejudice-Emma (don‘t make me choose!!!!).
    Love to Ben and the 🐾 🐾! Monica (currently and for the foreseeable future exactly 1612 km from Jane Austen‘s house, in tiny town Austria) 📚

    Persuasion for me,after that Pride and Predjudice I like Northanger Abbey, which is not always so popular. I think I like it as I live close to Bath. I've just celebrated my 40th wedding anniversary. Thank you Claire 🖋✒️❤

    Absolutely delightful video! My favorite Jane Austen novel? "Persuasion," hands down, with "Lady Susan" a close second.

  • @GinaStanyerBooks
    @GinaStanyerBooks ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My favorite is always a toss up between Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion. 3 is always Northanger Abby, 4 and 5 is a toss up between Emma and Sense and Sensibility and 6 is always Mansfield Park (poor Mansfield Park!)
    What a fun haul! Loved seeing all your goodies.

    Sense and Sensibility is my favorite, maybe because I love the movie with Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet so much. That bonnet was made for you…you look so beautiful in it, and your hairstyle perfectly suits it. Wonderful video!!💐🌹📚📖🖊️🖊️🖊️

    Fantastic video! Such gorgeous things and such lovely stories they tell 💕 Pride and Prejudice will forever be my number one 🌟 I also have a mug like a penguin classics style with P&P, love a good mug, and a tote in the same style 😍 (and I wasn’t even planning on buying it but the reason that I bought the bag was because I bought to many books! 😆) “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a woman who buys too many books must be in want of a good tote” 😅💕

    Favorite novel is Persuasion. That’s also my favorite film adaptation of Pride & Prejudice ❤ The Persuasion with Ciarán Hinds and Amanda Root is also my favorite film adaptation.

    I’m so glad you bought the bonnet!!! 😆 I love it!
    I bought a copy of the 1995 tie-in P&P at a library book sale with a slightly different cover (it’s the one Kathleen Kelly brings to the cafe to meet her NY152 in You’ve Got Mail…so I geeked out about that too) and it’s a purchase I have never regretted! Colin Firth is perpetually staring out at me from my bookshelf. 😂
    Current favorite Jane Austen novel is Persuasion or Emma. ❤️🪶

    🖋 Sense and Sensibility. So many people have told me they didn't like it at first. When I was young reading it I related to the sisters losing a parent and trying really hard to carry on and finding security and love. I think the love story everyone misses in the novel is the sisters honestly. Its just special to me. Pride and Prejudice is up there as is Persuasion 😊.

  • @MaryE171
    @MaryE171 ปีที่แล้ว

    Pride & Prejudice is my favorite! I read it for the first time in high school, and it was the first classic that I really latched onto and could understand. I remember getting into a spirited discussion about it in class and realizing, oh, you can have these feelings about old books, too. I should probably reread it, it's been ages!

    That's such a lovely book haul! My book club was reading all the Bronte's last year, but I did squeeze in Emma and thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope to be reading more of her books very soon. Then, I will have others that I can compare Emma to. You look absolutely adorable in the bonnet! It becomes you. 🩷 ✒️

    Emma is my favourite Jane Austen novel and one comfort novels as well. What I like about Emma is that she makes mistakes but as the story goes on she learns compassion as she falls in love with Mr Knightley. Mr Woodhouse makes me laugh with all his fussing over wedding cake and illnesses but I think he is quite lonely and cares for Emma. Many people I've met remind me of Miss Bates with their non stop chattering! Mr Knightley is lovely and nicer than Mr Darcy as he is warmer, gives up his house so Emma can continue to live with her father at Hatfield. I'm also a big fan of pride and prejudice, I love 1995 adaptation, it is every special to me and I've watched it countless times. Love your bonnet! 📖🖋❤x
