on to list in excess every thing a woman must have to be accomplished - music, language, sewing, etc. and she must have a certain air about her - and darcy was like ‘all this she must have, but also the want to sharpen her mind with extensive reading’ or something like that and since the list was /massive/ and their standards high elizabeth like scoffed and said ‘i am no longer surprised at your only knowing six accomplished women. i rather wonder now at you knowing any’ and it made me (2/3)
laugh so much?? and i know! jane is so nice!! and so is bingley (the perfect match lol), and i love elizabeth’s relationship with jane - like she tramped across muddy fields just to go see her at netherfield when she was ill and jane was really pleased to see her!! and she stayed on even though 3 ppl she doesn’t like all that much at the moment were also at netherfield (miss bingley, mrs hurst and darcy lol) and they both have completely different mindsets when it comes to ppl (jane always (¾)
wants to see the best in ppl, whereas elizabeth is perfectly fine with recognising their faults lol) i look forward to it!! as of this moment darcy is just looking at her and trying not to (there was bit when they met in town and he was about to look at her, but then his eyes were snatched by wickham), and she just really doesn’t like him much at all at the moment (but also thinks and talks about him a lot!!) and ahh it’s so good :) also i love royai!! and i hope you’re well! (4/4)
yeah there’s a lot of really gr8 humor in the series :’) and jane is so naive and sweet, there’s a part where she’s like ‘lizzy his sisters can’t want me out of the picture bc if bingley really is in love with me then they would want me to be around to make him happy’ and u can feel lizzy just ‘oh baby…….no,’ bc caroline is Caroline. also elizabeth spends a solid like…..half a year obsessing over darcy while pretending to loathe him, it’s incredible. i’m glad ur enjoying the book still! <3
