I created The Austen Box for the girls who grew up watching Pride & Prejudice 2005, who aspire to be obstinate and headstrong, and who know what an excellent boiled potato is. Essentially, I created it for me, and it has grown into a beautiful community of ardent Austenites. We read books, support women-owned businesses, and take the time to slow down and enjoy our hobbies, occasionally dreaming of Wentworth, Knightley, and Darcy.

The May Box 💌📚🌊

The characters in Austen At Sea are fascinated with Jane Austen, letters, and matchmaking, so naturally, this box had to address all of these themes. When I first read “I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal,” I knew that Jane and I would be linked for life, and it was amazing to find an item with this quote from her letters. Whether you use it as a tea towel or hang it on your wall is up to you! I hope you are also enjoying the BEAUTIFUL greeting cards, packaged especially for us by Nuthatch Studios. I encourage you to send a note to your friends - the art of letter-writing is not dead!! I have been enjoying absolutely annihilating my mom at the memory matchmaking game (mostly because I know the couples much better than she does) - but even so, it’s been a great reason for us to spend screen- and work-free time together. Finally, if you’ve read the book already, you know that the bookmark I included is an homage to Louisa May Alcott’s cameo on the ship. Another strong, witty, prickly woman for us to admire. To Natalie Jenner, thank you for writing us a gloriously wistful books (and thank you for Justice Nash 🔥)

I’m absolutely DELIGHTED to announce that The Austen Box’s June book will be BEHIND FIVE WILLOWS by June Hur!!!!!!!! This is an utterly heartfelt P&P retelling set in Joseon dynasty Korea in which two book lovers fall for one another…despite their best efforts. I absolutely loved this one and I know you will too!! Order your box by 5/31 to receive it!!

May is one of my favorite months, and what better way to enjoy it than with a book? Austen at Sea captured my heart with its heroines, earnestness, and interludes featuring a group of Austen-reading judges. I am so grateful to Natalie Jenner, who was kind enough to write us a letter about her inspiration to celebrate the book’s paperback release. Plus, there’s a special surprise from her tucked in the front cover!

In this novel, the characters are concerned with the personal life and legacy of Jane Austen herself. I have included an item in this box that features one of my favorite Austen quotes, not from her novels, but her letters, and some absolutely stunning stationery that you may want to keep for yourself. This book also got me thinking about slowing down more (is anyone else seeing inspiration for “analogue bags” online?). To that end, I have included a game that I particularly enjoy as a screen-free activity. Enjoy!
