Persuasion, Chapter 22, Part 2
Anne joins Charles and Mary in going to meet the Musgroves, happy to feel the familial warmth from them that she so sorely misses at home. Their hotel is full of hustle and bustle, with guests coming and going, including Captain Wentworth. Anne's wish of conversing with him is cut short by Mary spotting Mrs. Clay and Mr. Elliot together outside, which puzzles Anne, as Mr. Elliot was supposed to be out of town. But the thought is soon replaced by a more pressing one, as Elizabeth invites them all to a party at the Elliot home tomorrow night, and all Anne can think about is whether Captain Wentworth will attend. Anne and Captain Wentworth are finally getting closer once again, and as they do, let them help you get closer to a peaceful night of warm and restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - A Visit to Pemberley
After the visit from Georgiana, Elizabeth and Mrs. Gardiner do the polite thing and return the favor with a visit to Pemberley. There, Elizabeth is reacquainted with Miss Bingley, whose jealousy is on full display. But Elizabeth holds her own against Miss Bingley's jibes, and in the process, endears herself even more to Mr. Darcy. It's unfortunate for Miss Bingley, but jealous people aren't often wise. But listening to this week's Friday Favorites is always a wise decision, so let our latest familiar story help you as you drift away into a night of soft and gentle sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Persuasion, Chapter 22, Part 1
Anne is still reeling from learning the truth about Mr. Elliot, and is relieved to find that she's missed his visit, and that he has left town for two days. His departure will give her time to confer with Lady Russell about what she's learned. But before she can call on Lady Russell, the Elliots receive a call from some unexpected visitors: Charles and Mary Musgrove are in Bath. Anne is genuinely happy to see them, and to catch up with Charles about how his two sisters are doing. Both are headed towards marriage - Henrietta with Charles Hayter, and Louisa with Captain Benwick. It's a welcome happy distraction from the sordid business with Mr. Elliot. As Anne and her family welcome the Musgroves, let their story help you welcome an evening filled with peaceful slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Friday Favorites: Pride and Prejudice - Meet Georgiana Darcy
When Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth met at Pemberley, he was adamant about wanting her to meet his sister, but Elizabeth didn't realize that meant they would call immediately after her arrival. She's flattered, and soon realizes that contrary to what she's heard, Georgiana isn't proud, she's just shy. The Darcys are accompanied by Mr. Bingley, who is as warm and delightful as ever, and, as Elizabeth is relieved to see, has no interest in Miss Darcy. What's more, Mr. Darcy's civility from the day before has continued, and Elizabeth can't believe that this is the same man she found so distasteful before. Elizabeth's feelings are changing before her eyes, and as they do, let this week's Friday Favorites help you change from a busy day into another night of rest and relaxation.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!
