A review by shogins
The Austen Playbook by Lucy Parker

4.0

I liked this a lot more than the last one in the series! Freddy is the scion of a venerable West End acting family, and her father who manages her career wants her to stick to dramatic acting, particularly since a revival of her grandmother Henrietta's renowned play is casting soon. Griff is notoriously curmudgeonly theatre critic whose grandfather happened to have an affair with the notorious Henrietta. When Freddy is cast in an interactive Austen adaptation filming at Griff's family's crumbling estate, sparks fly! I liked the romance, and found the mystery well done. Sadie was an excessively villainous villain, but every other character hit realistic notes.

I read an e-ARC from NetGalley.
