Jane Austen Made Me Do It: Original Stories Inspired by Literature's Most Astute Observer of the Human Heart by Laurel Ann Nattress

4.0

This was very entertaining, although if you're not a big Jane Austen fan already I'm not sure how much you'd like it. The editor has solicited short stories from a range of writers, with the only caveat being that the story must somehow be inspired by Austen and her works. Some of the stories pick up where her novels left off with particular characters, and others are set in the modern day and feature "Janeites." There's also one that focuses on Austen's brother, though, who commanded a ship in the Royal Navy, and describes a battle that he fought.

Overall it's a quick and amusing read, and if you like Jane Austen you'll like this.
