It always makes me smile to see this announcement pop up in June. Jane Austen July was how Tilly lured me into booktube. Time to start planning.
I’m so excited about Jane Austen July this year! Yay!
Such a project!!
You are completely right about S&S not being a love story. It is an amazing novel about family.
This has made me super excited to get stuck into some Austen once again. Like you, I found that Sense and Sensibility improves with every reread. Looking forward to reading it once again and discovering more details in the story.
Also your new novel looks fantastic! I just ordered a copy!
This is my first Jane Austen July and I’m reading all of her novels for the first time this year (minus Pride and Prejudice). All of your recommendations sound so great and I know I’ll be reading them beyond the month. 😄
I forgot about Jane Austen July and filmed my TBR!! I am so participating!! I will film another video with my updated TBR along with it! I cannot believe I forgot this!
Very much looking forward to participating and was going read Sense and a sensibility anyway, so yay!
I had just checked for a JAJ announcement video about 20 minutes before you posted this! As someone who read Sense and Sensibility 40 years ago and didn’t enjoy it as much as Pride and Prejudice, it is definitely time for a re-read.
How happy and excited was I to see videos announcing Jane Austen July!!! I love it and I think it will be my 5th year participating in it. <3 I have my list ready for each of the challenges and am thinking this may be the year I complete all the challenges or almost all of them. But even if I don't it will be a wonderful July full of Jane Austen goodness!
I will try and take part a little this year, looking forward to your book!
Happy anticipation! Will definitely take part in the read-alongs and take up as many of the challenges as I am able. I kept a list from last time of possibilities for this time. I love Sense and Sensibility and am looking forward to the re-read. My third favorite Austen (after Pride and Prejudice and Emma). Definitely a sibling story -- I'm not sure I have read a better one.
So excited! My favorite month of the year!
I am so happy we are reading Sense and Sensibility as I am going to see the play at the Pitlochry Theatre in August.
I would love to discuss the rakes. I have su h strong feelings about Henry Crawford.
Looking forward to JJA, but also very excited for your new book release. I’ll be happy with whatever mix of content you release during July. Just reserved a bunch of library books! 😎
Reading Jane Austen at Home & The Other Bennet Sister now! I am enjoying Lucy Worsley's book very much. And The Other Bennet Sister is also good for a retelling.
This is perfect 🙌🏽. Sense and Sensibility was what I was already planning to read for Jane Austen July 🫶🏽✨
Yaaaaaaaaay!Not only will I be joining in the readathon (I think this is the 6th year I've joined) but I'll also be going to Bath towards the end of July for a very Jane Austen filled few days to celebrate my birthday.
