Started reading Far from the Madding Crowd. It's been surprisingly accessible! I love Bathsheba, she is so flawed, real and powerful. Thomas Hardy had truly created The literary feminist. Despite being an avid Austen fan, Hardy has surpassed her on strong female characters!

Very excited about my new books.

@Sn0wc0 @ForSocialWork @StefaniaCiocia Equally the comedy is outstanding. I have never seen one of Jane's adaptations done so well in truly justifying her comic genius. Miranda is amazing as Ms. Bates and Bill Nighy plays an endearing version of Mr. Woodhouse, as opposed to those who have played this role before him.

@Sn0wc0 @ForSocialWork @StefaniaCiocia As explained by Far From The Madding Crowd (2015) costume designer, it doesn't have to be muddy. Their clothes would have been vivid colours. Additionally, the assthetic of this adaptation breaths a new lease of life into her novel and for me makes it alive!

@Sn0wc0 @ForSocialWork @StefaniaCiocia Such as male nudity being exploited as opposed to female nudity.
I enjoyed the assthetic, with it's ice-cream colours. I believe it plays into Emma's character and her rose tinted view on the world. But more than that it isn't another brown or visually subdued costume drama.

@Sn0wc0 @ForSocialWork @StefaniaCiocia Pre-warning: This is an enraged rant and has poor punctuation. I loved Emma. I've been a fan on Jane Austen since around the age of ten. Emma is personally my least favourite Austen novel due to the fact that you already know what's going to happen.

Day 2 of #7booksIlove
Presenting Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen (again).
I love the awkward Edward Ferrars especially when it was so brilliantly portrayed by Hugh Grant!

Day 1 of #7booksIlove
Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice!

My dad tried to read it to me when I was 13. He gave up because I was quoting each sentence just before he got to it. ☺🥰😅😂

What are the chances I get a dog for Valentines Day tomorrow? Seriously though I would have any dog!
