Pride & Prejudice Book Club Podcast

Side By Side, Apart - By Ann Galvia

**Note: This episode is out of order. Due to technical issues, The Peculiarity of Mr. Darcy's Mirror will be released next week.**
What if you had been married for ten years, but couldn't remember anything about your marriage (or how you ended up married in the first place)? This is the situation facing Elizabeth *Darcy* when she wakes up with a head injury and a serious case of amnesia. Pregnant with her fourth child and married to a man she only remembers disliking, Lizzy must reconcile her past with the woman she has become.
Our book club discussion covers the importance of small moments in life, platonic friendships, and mistakes we may or may not be making as parents...

Jessie Lewis: Author Interview

In a pinch-me-I'm-dreaming kind of way, we're delighted to bring you the Pride and Prejudice Book Club's first ever author interview! And who better to kick it off with than Jessie Lewis, author of Speechless, Fallen, Epiphany, Unfounded, and both Alicia and Emilie's favorite variation--Mistaken.
In this interview we discuss how and when she first fell in love with Pride and Prejudice, what inspired her to begin writing and publishing variations, what the process of writing is like for her, her definition of love, and much, much more!
We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did!
Jessie, all we can say is--you're tolerable, we suppose ❤️
 
If you'd like to learn more about Jessie and what she's up to (including a deleted chapter from Mistaken and a bonus scene for Speechless), you can check out her blog, Life In Words.

Will she ever escape the madness?
Enjoy the ride as we discuss clever plot points, the impish character of Colonel Fitzwilliam, and a surprisingly sympathetic Caroline Bingley, along with a LOT of Lizzy and Darcy time...

A Disguise of the Worst Sort - By Sarah Courtney

We've been teasing this mashup for a while, and it's finally here—P&P meets Freaky Friday! Sarah Courtney takes us for a delightful spin in a story where Caroline Bingley swaps bodies with Lizzy. A confused Darcy begins to wonder whether he is engaged to the right woman when Caroline Bingley is suddenly more appealing than his own fiancee...
Reading this story makes our hosts wonder: would we recognize our spouses if they had a Freaky Friday experience? And what is it that makes a person a person?

Mr Darcy’s Enchantment - By Abigail Reynolds

Have you ever wondered what Pride and Prejudice would be like if you added magic and characters from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream?
...no?
Well, you may want to try this book out anyway!
This book by prolific JAFF author Abigail Reynolds is truly unique in its premise, world building, and character roster. Emilie thinks it is a complex delight. Will it overcome Alicia's aversion of fantasy variations? Join us to find out!

Fallen - By Jessie Lewis

It's time for us to discuss the fifth (and final) book by Jessie Lewis—Fallen!
A chance meeting with a young girl softens Elizabeth's heart towards Darcy early on in the story. As the truth of the young girl's origins comes to light, Lizzy must grapple with how to reconcile her feelings for Darcy with what she feels she owes to her family...and herself. 
As always, the themes and quotes in this book inspire further reflection. What is gossip? Can it ever be helpful, or is it always hurtful? Was Lizzy being selfish in the original P&P when she denied not just one, but TWO eligible marriage proposals, putting her emotional needs over her family's future economical needs? And WHEN is the next Jessie Lewis book coming out???
