[@PoiemaLee]

I don’t think I have seen you in a while, nice to have you back. I just finished my reading of P & P this morning. I never get tired of that one!

@@PoiemaLee thanks! It has been 10 months. I never tire of Pride and Prejuduce. I think it’s my favorite book of all books.!❤️❤️❤️

So nice to see that you are back. It sounds like you have been really busy with very worthwhile activities! Congratulations on your health goals. I know that it's not easy when you have physical challenges.

Ooooooo Mary, How wonderful to see you! Have missed you. I admire your dedication w/your trainer. Its a major accomplishment. 🎈 Always enjoy your videos. 🌻 You'd been on my mind couple weeks ago __ I should have checked your channel then. This video just popped up a few moments ago. Happy happy! 🎉

Hi Hyacinth! It's been fun to be back on during JA July. Once I start painting class, I will have to see how much time I have but it is fun for now. Thanks for thinking of me. :)

It’s great to hear from you! Way to go on the health gains. I love the Keira Knightley version of P&P too! It’s such a great movie!

[@bookingthroughlife]

Thanks so much Art! I think the Kierra Knightley version is nearly perfect which I say all the time. Lol!

Hi Mary!! So great to see you! Congrats on your health journey! You look fantastic! 🎉 I have some of Claudia Gray's Star Wars books, but I didn't know she also wrote some Austen related books. I only read Persuasion for Jane Austen July and then watched a movie adaptation. I struggle a bit with Austen so I just read one of the two I hadn't read yet. Now I only have Mansfield Park left for next year. 😊

Hi Elizabeth! Thank you so much. I have had 2 lazy days so I need to get back at it tomorrow. I think for modern readers, it can take a few reads before you get into the flow. Film adaptations help. I think Claudia Gray just started writing the JA series 2 or 3 years ago. I am looking forward to reading more of her work. Its good to hear from you.

For those who like Jane Austen's writings, they may enjoy reading Hamerston Hall by Jane Eastbourne. It is a regency period novel that has a similarity to JA's stories. I liked reading it!

[@bookingthroughlife]

Thanks Shirley! I will check it out. I love recommendations!

[@MLLatUtube]

I also chose The Perils of Lady Catherine de Bourgh - I have loved both of the other books in that series. Enjoy Jane Austen July!
