It is a truth universally acknowledged, that paperbacks are infinitely easier to read than hardcovers. So we had a thought...what if we take the stunning beauty and unique individuality of our special edition books, and infuse all that charm into a delightfully readable paperback form? It was an idea universally acknowledged to be awesome here at LitJoy. The result? We are now proud to introduce the first foray into our newest category of special edition books: Jane Austen LitJoy Paperback Classics! Coming holiday season 2024!

A Peek into Our New LitJoy Paperback Classics

Prepare for a truly immersive experience in these stunning special edition books, with gorgeous new cover art, intricate page edges, and Hugh Thomson’s original illustrations throughout these romantic tales. Enter the world of Jane Austen in a whole new way as we breathe life into the pages of the first two books in our newest collection, Persuasion and Pride & Prejudice!

Pride & Prejudice LitJoy Paperback Classic

"You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." – Jane Austen, Pride & Prejudice

Experience this story of love and life in Regency England all over again. Laugh as the Bennet sisters dodge their mother's matchmaking skills, and sigh as Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy fight their own flaws on the path to understanding each other. As always, you'll be sad for it to end.

Experience this story of second chances as we follow Anne Elliott, a clever woman who's long regretted breaking her engagement with the man she loved seven years before, due to persuasion by others. Now a mature woman, she must contend with her feelings when the man in question returns. You'll fall in love with some characters, and delight in loathing others, while you root for Anne to own her own future and claim her happy ending.
