Mrs. Norris has got to be one of the most insufferable characters ever created—but the wit and brilliance with which Jane Austen writes her dialogue and inner thoughts makes me laugh so hard!

I honestly think Mansfield Park might be my second-favourite Austen! I love it that much!

What an incredible achievement in psychological and relational realism!! Every single character has such profound complexity and nuance.
Wanda McCaddon’s narration is simply outstanding… Not surprisingly…!

I just plain love Fanny Price.
And seriously—is Mary Crawford a reincarnation of Lucy Steele?! And Henry Crawford a preincarnation of Alec Stoke—d’Urberville?!

Mrs Norris is truly intolerable…
And Mrs Bertram asking her husband if she can do without Fanny for an evening always cracks me up!!

Finished Chapter 13, and I hear myself asking for the umpteenth time, “What on EARTH does Edmund see in Mary Crawford?!” 😡
