Whenever people compare books to Jane Austen, I generally think they don't understand, or perhaps have never even read Jane Austen. The only thing this book has in common with anything written by Jane Austen is that, in both cases, the authors first name begins with J.

This book is fantastically heavy-handed in its humor, and almost all of it is absurdly on the nose and fantastically tongue-in-cheek. If you read the blurb on the back cover and thought, "Well, that's a bit much" know that it's way more than that. Not only does it run the joke to death, it then dances on the jokes corpse, has sex with it, then buries it.

It's not bad but it's not memorable for anything other than the authors attempt to take a bunch of weak jokes way too far.
