DARCY PROPOSAL OUT OF LEFT FIELD WOAH

Almost halfway done and my initial thoughts are this:

(1) I can see why it’s a great work. Writing style takes a while but once you get it becomes easier, Austin is clever + witty

(2) It makes me sad how much characters are worried abt wealth and status. Love someone because you love them and want to share life and adventure with them— regardless of whether it seems impractical or how you’ll be perceived.

I’m Mr. Bingley, Sean is Mr. Darcy— got it! 👍🏻

“You mistake me, my dear. I have a high respect for your nerves. They are my old friends. I have heard you mention them with consideration these twenty years at least.”

Ha, real.
