BookelensLEGENDBORN by Tracy Deonn (in progress)<br>
Wanted to read this for a while now, and it’s quite good so far! Pacy, intriguing, and not too hormonally YA so far.<br>
<br>
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE by Jane Austen (in progress)<br>
Because I still seem to need comfort re-reads, and there’s no better one than P&P. I’d forgotten how relentlessly paced this. But I hadn’t forgotten how snarky 😊<br>

Excessively Diverting<p>The title, of course, is pearl-clutching, but digging deep, it turns out the house Jane visited no longer exists in the current structure, which was built in 1865, far after Jane’s death. Clearly clickbait, but it's interesting, nonetheless!</p><p><a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/jane-austen-mansion-demolition-ashe-park-house-hampshire-b2724485.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">independent.co.uk/news/uk/home</span><span class="invisible">-news/jane-austen-mansion-demolition-ashe-park-house-hampshire-b2724485.html</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/AmReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmReading</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/AmWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmWriting</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/ReadingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ReadingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Regency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Regency</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Georgian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Georgian</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/JaneAusten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JaneAusten</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/romancelandia" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>romancelandia</span></a></span></p>
