I 💘 how #JaneAusten wrote herself into her novels. The fate of her characters often reflects her own life experiences. They have known romance, solitude, heartache, change, and loss. Jane wrote about what she knew, and this personal touch is what makes her stories so profound.

In what ways did Louisa May Alcott's involvement in social reform movements, such as abolitionism and women's suffrage, shape the messages and themes in her writing, particularly in "Little Women" and her other works?

Some lovely Anne of Green Gables fan art. 🎨🥰💚

Lucy Maud Montgomery, author of Anne of Green Gables, battled depression by finding solace in nature. Long walks on Prince Edward Island inspired the vivid landscapes in her novels, making nature a healing force in her life and a hallmark of her enduring storytelling.

#BeatrixPotter, famed for her #PeterRabbit books, was also a pioneering #conservationist. She used her earnings to buy and protect land in England’s #LakeDistrict, later leaving over 4,000 acres to the #NationalTrust to preserve its beauty and traditions.

When you love a book, do you lend it to friends to share the love, or encourage them to buy their own to support the author? Lending helps readers, but buying boosts the author’s sales. What’s your take on balancing both sides? #Readers #Writers

We're all off to an early 20th century vintage party, and you have to wear one...which one do you pick? 🥳 #History #Fashion #Dresses #Twenties #FashionHistory




In Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen parodies the early 19th-century drive for sensibility, which valued strong emotions over reason and intellect. Consider the significance of the novel’s title. How are its qualities represented in the main characters?

Do you think Pride and Prejudice's chasteness is more a reflection of the way people lived in that time and place, or a reflection of what was acceptable in its literature, or something specific to Jane Austen? #JaneAusten #PrideAndPrejudice
