4.0

There were so many things I liked about this book - it’s so well written, the characters are real and flawed, and nothing is rushed. But I don’t like the time travel to the future trope or reading about actors or people trying to win back an ex. Still, I loved it. Going to find other books by the same author.
Clean, closed door. HEA?

No.

4.5

This was a really unique concept. I loved the idea of Jane Austen getting stuck in modern day. She was always an author who managed to feel relevant and modern despite writing in a completely different time. It was fun to imagine her really getting to experience how much more autonomy she'd have in today's world while also seeing all the problems in the current world that women face. It ended up being way more moving than I anticipated, and I'd absolutely recommend it to any fan of Austen's writing.

It's possible I missed some content warnings since I'm catching up on reviews and it's been a few months since I read it.
