It’s almost the weekend, it’s starting to get into crisp cosy weather (even here in Savannah!), and what better to celebrate both of those things than a new read!

Rereading Jane Austen | Sense and Sensibility
Inspired by reading about others rereading Jane Austen in the order of publication, and the fact I began 2021 with a head full of Bridgerton (both the Shondaland show and the eight Julia Quinn novels that I binge-read in about two weeks) and Regency history books, I decided it was time to return to Austen’s read more
