IF Jane Austen were alive now and was a bit edgy this would be how she'd write :D Very funny writing and sharp wit. I loved the romance between Georgiana and Thomas , but the character of Frances was annoying from the first, and I felt too much time was spent on the unlikeable "mean girl" characters.  I found it frustrating that the characters that deserved comeuppance didn't really get it, leaving me somewhat unsatisfied at the end. That said, I would definitely read more by the author and the 3.5 stars are very solid ones - at points throughout I thought it would be a 4.5. The narrator, Bessie Carter, was excellent and did an absolutely brilliant job.

The behavior is hard to believe for the time period,  and it's not as funny as Gwen and Art
