jane austen.

on a jane austen kick. who knows what has put me in this mood! been lately i've been watching the films pride & prejudice, emma, and sense & sensibility...while diving into reading persuasion for the first time. 


what is it about ms. austen that i adore so much?!?! perhaps her sharp wit and extraordinary ability to communicate the essence of each character...it seems to leap off the page!! and how tragic that her own life ended without the 'happily ever afters' that she penned in her novels. 


so with that, i've decided to share my favorite scene from pride & prejudice. love it.



"sometimes the last person on earth you want to be with is the one person you can't be without" - jane austen (pride & prejudice)

yeah, I go into the jane austen world at least once or twice a year. maybe more, I've stopped counting. I really think it's the wit..
persuasion is on my top two favorite of hers. I still go back and forth between persuasion and mansfield park. I hope you enjoy it! love you friend!
