Jane Austen Tarot [GAME]

Today I thought we'd have a little game, some book recommendations, AND a mini review! How's that for efficient. 
Details on the tarot set, timestamps for the choices, and links to the books can be found below.

Sorry for just linking to the books rather than listing them, but... wouldn't want to spoil the surprise!

The ultimate must-have for any Jane Austen fan, this gorgeous set of 53 tarot cards features hand-drawn characters and objects from Austen's enduring novels.

Noted Jane Austen artist Jacqui Oakley brings her beautiful work to the world of tarot with this sublime and whimsical package. Featuring 53 characters (including Elizabeth Bennet, Mr. Darcy, Elinor Dashwood, and more) and objects (such as well-trimmed bonnets and a stack of novels) from Austen's books, each card doubles as a playing card and tarot card. With Mr. Wickham from Pride and Prejudice as the Devil, a teapot representing strength, and Austen herself as the Magician, it's perfect for both longtime and new Austen fans.

Oversized, sleek, and sophisticated, this deck comes in a hinged cigar box decorated with foil stamping and a wafer seal enclosure, and is accompanied by a booklet containing a brief overview of tarot and a guide to the cards and the world of Austen.

  1. I *just* got this deck on Saturday! :D
    What great recs- my chosen one is a book I've never heard of before, so I'm eager to check it out.

  2. That is a gorgeous deck, Misty. What a fun way to make it an interactive game for watchers. I've read the #1 and #3 book recs and thought you picked well for what the cards represent. Guess that means I should finally get busy and read #2's rec and I even love what the card says for that one.

    Appreciate these extras you put in for #AIA
