Jane McGrath @jlbmcgrath.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Sense and Sensibility is odd - sort of sticks to the novel. Makes Edward 98% less of a idiot. Marianne's passion is mostly conveyed by her hair needing a good brush. It has a very gloomy palette and misses a lot of the humour. Then in the last 20 minutes it goes batshit crazy. Quite extraordinary. 201
Jane McGrath @jlbmcgrath.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Yes! Mary Poppins in the books is all vanity, ego and touchiness, and is absolutely amazing. I would love to see that on film. The Disney one is too sickly-sweet. 010

Jane McGrath @jlbmcgrath.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Had resolved to stop buying books until my to-read pile was reduced. Went out today, bought 4 more books. My self discipline is so strong! But in my defence they were all second hand and the little Diary of a Nobody is gorgeous. 030
