...the first glance to see how many pages there are, the second to see how it ends, the breathless first reading, the slow lingering over each phrase and each word, the taking possession, the absorbing of them one by one, and finally the choosing of the one that will be carried in one's thoughts all day... -- Edith Wharton

Hahaha...have you cleared up the dishes or finished Pride and Prejudice?! Kidding aside, it has been far too long since my copy has seen the light of day, glad you enjoyed it - again.

Very much enjoying your P&P posts. I used to have a Jane Austen mug which I used at work until somebody pinched it!

Someone should make this on a pillowcase! Or, even a throw pillow to prop up on my favorite cozy reading chair. *sigh*
