Thanks all for the comments, maybe I was wrong lol. I'll check it again. So Georgiana was only 16 in the book? I need to reread. Jan 30, PM. Monique wrote: "So Georgiana was only 16 in the book?

I need to reread " Yes. She wasn't out yet. In Darcy's letter after his proposal he states that: 1 The attempt at elopement happened last summer 2 He's ten years older than his sister 3 She was 15 at the time.

If we'd all studied that letter as much a Darcy was at his late 20s. He was quite a mature man, so I still imagine he was almost Sandy wrote: " BTW, he is more than 10 years older than his sister.

Guess I'll need to read that letter again. It says in the book that Mr. Feb 02, AM. Feb 05, AM. It's a while since I read it, but I thought Darcy was about twenty-six. Feb 05, PM. Doesn't the book say "eight and twenty? Ruby wrote: "Doesn't the book say "eight and twenty?

Darcy: 28 12 years older than Georgiana , 23 when his father died Wickham: Around , 20 or 21 when the late Mr. Darcy died Collins: Around Bingley: Around Charlotte: Around 27 probably would've been a spinster if not for Collins Jane: 23 turns 23 at some point in the book Lizzy: 20 might've turned 21 before the end Mary: Around Kitty: Around Lydia: 15 Georgiana: 16 15 when she almost eloped , 11 when her father died The age difference between Darcy and Georgiana is the same as the age gap between me and my oldest sister.

Lizzy is my age if I only I had her good fortune. Victoria wrote: "Darcy: 28 12 years older than Georgiana , 23 when his father died Wickham: Around , 20 or 21 when the late Mr. May 07, PM. Darcy made a comment during their walk his second proposal that hints he may be 28 or older.

So I'll just put him at 28 at the beginning and 29 at the end. We can probably also deduce that his birthday is after April, seeing as he said he was an arrogant asshole from when he was 8 to when he was Although it may not be strictly true, it's safe to assume that he didn't include when he was Elizabeth tells Lady Catherine that she 'is not one-and-twenty' when she visits Rosings in the spring, around April. Since she didn't just come out and say 'twenty', I think we can assume that she isn't quite 20 or 21, but somewhere in between.

From the very first volume of the novel Elizabeth hears reports of Miss Georgiana from various sources, favorable and otherwise depending who is telling the tale.

Darcy by Caroline Bingley and we given our first hints at her physical description. I never met with anybody who delighted me so much. Such a countenance, such manners!

Her performance on the pianoforte is exquisite. This favorable description, mind you, is from a source that Elizabeth finds influenced by a desire to please Mr. Darcy rather than praise its subject. Later we hear a completely different story when Mr. Wickham describes Georgiana to Elizabeth in chapter It gives me pain to speak ill of a Darcy. But she is too much like her brother — very, very proud. As a child, she was affectionate and pleasing, and extremely fond of me; and I have devoted hours and hours to her amusement.

But she is nothing to me now. She is a handsome girl, about fifteen or sixteen, and I understand, highly accomplished. Disparity of opinion is a theme that runs throughout the novel. Elizabeth is given two accounts of one event or person from two different sources. Which one will she believe? Is Miss Darcy as extremely accomplished as Miss Bingley touts her to be, or is she the very, very proud and forgetful childhood friend that Wickham wishes Elizabeth to find fault with, — as he does?

Reynolds in chapter 43, who shows Elizabeth a very different side to Mr. Darcy and his sister. She plays and sings all day long. Because I am a huge Georgiana fan, I appreciate this honest and thoughtful review. Like Liked by 2 people.
