Thanks again! I really enjoyed meeting Edward and Fanny Knight. Parts of the mystery were very interesting, one element certainly subtracted from my enjoyment in reading this. If I go to meeting of Jasna MA that Stephanie Barron is scheduled to speak at, I hope to ask about her thought process in creating Edward and Fanny's characters.

I agree with Suzan!! This book, especially the 2nd half,
was amazing!!!

Abigail Bok (regency_reader) Finished my challenge book, Beth Deitchman’s Mary Bennet and the Bloomsbury Coven. Thank you, Shannon, for picking it for me! It was entirely delightful. Reviewed here: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Claudine DiMuzio / Just Jane 1813 | 197 comments Thank you to Sheila for selecting "Darcy's Voyage" from my TBR list! It was such a lovely variation that really offered an original and exciting journey for ODC. I really enjoy these challenges and I hope we do another one soon!

Sheila Majczan (sheilalmajczan) | 138 comments My Head Upon the £10 Note: Time-travel Jane
I finished reading this & had tears also. Will write review when home from vacation. Took a little to pull me in but then a page turner.

That's exactly how I felt, Sheila. A slow start, but then it really had me transfixed.

I finished Loving Miss Darcy and it was a beautiful and tender story. And Col. Fitz was the hero which made it extra enjoyable.

Thanks for the fantastic pick, Kirk!

I loved this book from the POV of Darcy's dog."


Sorry, I had some trouble in reading the book in time for August. I just finished it this morning... :P
I hope you won't mind my delay, Christina! I enjoyed the book very much! :)

Haha! You guys...

Guess we'll let you count them since we haven't officially started the next 'Someone Else Pick It'. :)

Hope they were enjoyable reads!


message 66: by Kim (new)

Kim (allthelovelypages) | 22 comments Ack! I totally forgot to post that I finished my pick from Abigail waaaay back in August. The Darcys of Pemberley was almost too angst-free for me but she poured it on in the end. I have to have some strife for E&D.

Sophia (sophiarose) | 757 comments Mod
That's funny, Kim! Usually Darcy and Lizzy are the angsty ones.


message 68: by Abigail (new)

Abigail Bok (regency_reader) Glad it paid off in the end, Kim!
