I'm in! I just ordered your book and have started re reading Pride and Prejudice. I've had the same copy since high school and it's been at least 10 years since I've read it. Giving me all the warm fuzzies. :)

All set up. I gave my daughter my copy of your book and just received my second copy from Ave Maria. Looking forward to this.

Any recommendations for getting the entire set without spending $75+?? I found a flexible binding version on Amazon but the reviews seemed to indicate the actual books might’ve had printing problems. I’m open to buying one at a time but want them to match on my shelves, if you know what I mean.

If you're in USA, try Barnes and Noble for editions in various price ranges including all in one volume. Also check your local used bookstore or thrift store. Hope this helps.

I've seen the 2005 movie and the BBC edition, but I've never actually read Pride and Prejudice. After hearing you on Joy Clarkson's podcast, I bought your book Jane Austen's Genius Guide to Life. Looking forward to diving in!!!

Glad to have stumbled on your substack today. I got the book for Christmas and am planning to make this the year of reading (or listening to) Jane Austen. Glad I'll have company doing so. I've read your blog for years but was unaware that you had a substack. Perhaps put a post over there so that people know to come here. I can't be the only one who still uses a feed reader.

I literally just lamented about how I wasn’t encouraged to read the classics when I was in high school and so I felt frustrated that whenever I try to read them, I feel alone and stop because it can be hard! And here this comes across my Twitter feed! A friend and I were just talking about starting to read a Jane Austen together, and so I sent her this to see about joining y’all! I feel it’s providential that I found it the week that the book reading starts, and I can hopefully snag your book ASAP to go along with it! I’m super excited!

Opened your book today as part of my birthday breakfast celebration 🎉😍 I am excited to jump in and spend the year with Jane Austen and this community. Been reading Jane Austen for 20+ years. Always enjoy my re-reads ♥️
