We’re back from our break and couldn’t be more excited to return with a very special guest on The Pride and Prejudice Book Club—author Sophie Turner! 🎉 You might remember her from The Crimes of Elizabeth Darcy, the JAFF telenovela that had us marveling at its bonkers yet brilliant plot twists.

We first met Sophie at JAFFCon back in November, when she graciously agreed to come on the pod. In this episode, she shares how her first attempt at reading Pride and Prejudice was… less than successful, how she found her niche in the JAFF community, and why she loves putting Elizabeth and Darcy through the emotional wringer.

From her favorite tropes (spoiler: amnesia is up there!) to the meticulous research that goes into crafting her stories, Sophie gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her writing process and even teases what’s next—including a possible choose-your-own-adventure variation that has us itching to pre-order already! We also dive into some deeper themes like nature vs. nurture and what falling in love means in Austen's world.

If you’re as fascinated by regency-era legal systems as Alicia now is, or you just love hearing about how authors bring our favorite characters to life in new ways, you won’t want to miss this one!
