ReplyDeleteHave fun with all the Jane Austen-related books, it sounds like you will have a great reading time.
ReplyDeleteI could really use comfort of Jane Austen now. I'm at back at school trying to float as my co-librarian is leaving for another job. It's been hectic and stressful to say the least. Looking forward to reading your thoughts on these books.
ReplyDeleteThese all look so interesting! I like Jane Austen a lot and the graphic novel in particular sounds good - I’ve never read a graphic novel but I love illustrations so I think I’d enjoy it! Hope you’re having a nice weekend!
