    I loved this! I was just wondering about all the different editions and which one to treat myself with - this introduction was perfect, I really wanted to see inside the books and publishers seldom show that.

      I do this too! If I'm buying a book online, I'll often come to UA-cam to see if there's a video showing how it looks in real life haha. I'm so glad I could help in the same way!

    You have a good collection. Love the heirloom collection. Unfortunately it is very expensive in secondhand market.

      Thank you, Mitali! I was really lucky to get it because it somehow came back in stock around the time I first discovered its existence. I'd definitely say keep your eye out because every now and then an edition you'd never expect to be able to get your hands on will become available at a price you're willing to pay!

    wow what a collection! I'm looking to buy a set because I've never read them and have been wanting to... but so overwhelmingg with all the choices! one review on one set showed that hte fonts varied in that set - bigger print on some but tiny on others. I need readable and want something pretty and nice paper that feels good and looks good. I may make a trip to barnes and noble tomorrow and see what they have in-person

    • @preethiwashere
      @preethiwashere  11 місяців тому

      Thank you for your kind words! I would say it's not so much that it's difficult to read as that it's a different style of writing compared to modern texts. If you're hesitant, you can always try watching a movie adaptation before jumping into the book, which is actually what I did before reading Pride & Prejudice for the first time!

    Lovely collection! I'm still building up my collection of various editions. I plan on having a full set in the Everyman's Library edition but have yet to get the Persuasion and Sandition ones in those editions.

    Oh one more thing, does the language and the vocabulary different from collection to collection? Like the difficulty of reading?
