    Hiya ! I purchased the Arcturus Austen collection myself. I think they're incredibly priced: less than £25, in most places. I purchased the Arcturus collection of Bronte's; Dickens; H.G. Wells; Lovecraft; Fitzgerald; and Mark Twain - all for between £18 - £30, each.
    Beautiful editions; incredible value.

    Is this a good edition? I'm thinking about bying it, but i've read some complaints about it... I'm desperate for images of them in the inside and a valid opinion....that's what i was looking for in your video!

      Hi! Yes these are lovely editions to read. The paper quality is nice although the print is quite small.

      Go for it. I'm so happy with mine. They are perfect sized and even though the font is small it's still easy to read. All books are unabridged too!

    Great video! It was hilarious when you spoke like Mrs. Bennet. 😂
    Would please tell me if the covers made of cloth or paper? I recently bought an Arcturus book with silky cover and was very pleased with the edition. I planned to buy Everyman's Library editions of Jane Austen's books because they are clothbound, but if Arcturus books have cloth or silk cover I may buy them.

    I have the cloth bound box set from amazone. By Jane Austen pride and prejudice what you just showed at the start of the video but do I need to read them in rotation after reading pride and prejudice?

    I’m getting Jane Austin’s book collection box set new from Amazon soon hardcover just like the ones with pride and prejudice, Emma showing in this video it’s a box set of six, I see some people saying the text is tiny and I have a good magnifying glass, now I am worried because I am partially sited and have W in built torch and a good magnifying glass I downloaded, so please tell me is the texts writing on the pages tiny because I’m kind of worried now.

      The size of the text depends on which edition you have purchased. Check the information in the amazon listing. 💕

    Am I blind or are they a shortened edition? Cause Emma should be like double as big/long as the others, right? I have these in Finnish apart from "Mansfield Park", abd they're all 300 pages, except Emma 600 pages?

      Hi, they are all unabridged- the text is small but not ridiculously so. I will do an updated video to answer some FAQs soon 😊

    I’ve never seen any of the adaptions (waiting until I read each book) but I never realized how strongly people feel about the 2005 P&P adaption. It’s either people’s favorite movie of all time or they absolutely hate it! I think when I get to P&P, I’ll watch the 1995 one and then the 2005.

    • @StephaniMichelle1

      I am thinking of rewatching 2005 to give it another chance, but BBC version is my all time favourite adaptation of an Austen novel.

      Stephani Michelle I personally LOVE the 2005 Pride and Prejudice adaptation! There is something so magical about that movie and the vibes it gives me that I adore, and I think the characters are portrayed spectacularly! I enjoy the 1995 BBC adaption because of how extremely accurate it is to the book, but it doesn’t give me the same special and magical feelings the 2005 version does! I completely understand why people like the BBC version and the 2005 version!
      And by the way lovely video!!!
