Our dear Miss Bennett was a most attentive hostess as she welcomed us to her very own Longbourn. She served a variety of fine teas, cakes, and a menagerie of other fine deductibles! Approximately 14 people were present and partook in lively conversation. The stimulating discussion concerning Longbourn by Jo Baker resulted in the understanding that some really liked the book while others really did not. One thing remains true, we are still enraptured with our dear Jane’s writings. Also, more than likely, the next time we read Pride and Prejudice, the recollection of Sarah the maid will linger.
This was the third and final book discussion of the year.
