god this would be so enjoyable if jane austen wasn't so allergic to making it clear who the speaker is. in some dialogue you can deduce it sure (tho if i have to keep going back and figuring it out that is just very immersion breaking so still. not a fan) but there are scenes with like a total of at least 5 characters talking and it just gets really confusing for no reason

"and then thought no more of the matter: and their indifference towards Jane when not immediately before them restored Elizabeth to the enjoyment of all her former dislike." i love her so much
