So far I’ve read four of these (although I’ve also read Dearest Friends & Family Portraits by Pamela Lynne released as one book now)
I have a number of others on my list so just have to check out the rest, thank you Meredith.

I have only read The Murder of Mr. Wickham.
With no new Mary Bennet/Colonel stories I am re-reading old ones again to cure my JAFF desire

Excited about The Emma Project! I can already tell that when Sonali Dev runs out of Austen novels to adapt, I’ll go into the same kind of withdrawal I went into when I finished my last Austen novel.

I have read a bunch of these and picked up a couple of the audiobooks too! Looking forward to the June lineup 😉

Yikes I’ve only read three of these and they all look so good. Thanks so much for your monthly lists.

Thanks for compiling this helpful list for us, Meredith !
I haven’t read any of them, as usual, LOL but I find it really interesting. For example, I’m curious about “A little magic” by S. Neha because it has good reviews and seems a light reading for this time of the year. And I agree with your selection of novels and hope you enjoy them 😉

Oh my. May 31, ’22. Half way through the year already.

I’m only just now reading J. Dawn King’s newest, and the ones I want to read I lost count after counting on both hands.

I recently read Sonali Dev’s Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors. Wow. So I’m eager for the next one in line, but it will be awhile before I get to Emma.

Thanks so much for these lists, Meredith. Have a great June!

Yeah, May just blew by. I’ve read two and have two on my TBR pile. I would love to read more, but four is probably my limit this month. Thanks for listing them all, Meredith!
