Pride and Persistence - By Jeanna Ellsworth
Description
In this week’s episode, Alicia and Emilie dive into Pride and Persistence by Jeanna Ellsworth—a fun, quirky twist on Pride and Prejudice that sees Darcy proposing to Elizabeth…more than once! After a familiar disastrous proposal, Darcy suffers an accident that leaves him with short-term memory loss, and his first order of business in his confused state? Proposing to Miss Elizabeth Bennet. Again. And again. And again!
Alicia was worried the repetition might wear thin, but she was pleasantly surprised by how the author kept each proposal fresh and engaging. Both hosts found the story cute, but as sometimes happens, their final opinions differ—tune in to see where they each land!
We also get into a side discussion on the double standards society holds for the wealthy versus the rest of us, tying in some current pop culture moments for extra spice.
Join us for some laughs, hot takes, and a bit of Austen-inspired chaos! Talk at ya later!
