I had hoped to sympathize with the protagonist because I don’t actually enjoy Austen. The title, however, is misleading. I just couldn’t bring myself to care about anything that was going on here. ( )

I devoured this book. I picked it up at 10pm, and finished it at 1am (I'm tired today). I just couldn't put it down. I really enjoyed the pace, the story, and the imagined life of Jane Austen. ( )

Emma Grant blames Jane Austen for her belief in "happily ever after," as well as her parents. Emma recently found her husband cheating with her teaching assistant on their kitchen table. To make matters worse, the TA accused Emma of plagiarism and her jerk of a husband sided with the TA.
She goes off to England and is complies with some "tasks" that an elderly woman sets to her. All having to do with Jane Austen and a gap in her life span that historians cannot account for.

This book wasn't horrible, but it isn't fantastic either. Get it from the library. There are a few spelling errors and one major Jane Austen faux pas regarding the family's surname of Mansfield Park. ( )

It was okay. Unrealistic in many ways and Emma wasn't quite likable enough to draw me in and Adam wasn't quite developed enough for me to like him. The Formidables and the drawing in of Adam by Mrs. Parrot were definitely quite interesting. ( )

This book has many of the elements of the film National Treasure: a secret society, a series of clues to follow and tasks to perform, lost documents, and a dose of romance. I think that most readers will enjoy this newest release by Beth Pattillo.

When a young lady is to be a heroine, the perverseness of forty surrounding families cannot prevent her. Something must and will happen to throw a hero in her way."
