We have seasons in life, but sure glad to hear your plans, looking forward to them.

My daughter and I just finished our first Jane Austen book “Emma.” I was telling my daughter it’s like fine wine that has to be taken in sips. It was kind of a shock to her because she is so use to LM Montgomery’s Anne Shirley series, on its use of the sacramental nature to embellish the dialogues of her characters

Austen is masterful in exposing character flaws through dialogue, with lots of humor. I laughed so loud when Mr. Knightley says that Frank writes tiny like a women. My daughter hasn’t yet developed a taste for satire yet. Thank you

I’m so glad you did that with your daughter! Yes Austen’s books are packed with humorous throwaway comments like that! Emma is pretty intimidating as a first read. If she got through that she would probably love an easier read like pride and prejudice.

Thank you so much for your influence, I definitely wouldn’t be reading Austin if it wasn’t for you. Definitely looking forward to reading more
