I was really excited to read this book because I absolutely love Jane Austen and it also looked like a genuinely entertaining and enjoyable read. However, I was slightly let down.

I really liked/liked the:
  1. period/historical style 
  2. the descriptive style of writing 
  3. telling the story with letters and flashbacks

I think whether or not you like the book totally depends on what you like to read. If you like something with an interesting plot, and I guess, an obvious point to it; this isn’t for you. If your just looking for something to cosy up with on a rainy day and want to know more about Jane Austen and her family, it is.
