Review Suggestion:
Peter's notes from Jane Austen and Her Times, then:
7 novels, 5 - 10 minutes per book
- Essence of the story, main thrust of the plot
- Key characters and moments
- Did you like the plot or was it too obvious?
- Bits you enjoyed most / favourite character
- Anything you didn't like?
- Interesting observations
- Will you read it again?
All enabled by copious seasonal food and drink.
- Gail: Sense and Sensibility, 1811
- Sue: Pride and Prejudice, 1813
- Andrew: Mansfield Park, 1814
- Chris: Emma, 1816
- Gwynneth: Northanger Abbey, 1818
- Cath: Persuasion, 1818
- Anne: Lady Susan, 1871
To be followed by "mutual entertainment".
Read a poem, tell a story, sing a song, play a tune, or just enjoy yourself.
It should be mince pie season by then.
