A review by blodeuedd
Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters by Ben H. Winters, Jane Austen

2.0

I am going to admit to something that may shock you...Austen's writing can be dry *people gasping in horror* Oh shut it, yes I KNOW I read like a million variations, but *coughs* dry. Dry I say.

Never mind that, well yes do mind that, because that was my problem with this book, it was rather dry. Oh fibblesticks.

But the world was cool, the creatures of the sea, lakes and more have turned into man eating monsters. Everything is out to get you. And in this crazy world the sensible Dashwoods lives and everyone goes on with their business as usual. Oh that servant is making a spectacle of himself while being eaten, look away. How dare he. That I liked, the manners of the time combined with people having to fend of monsters at the same time.

Have some tea, oh and pick up ore and kill the hideous sea monster while you are at it.

But it was dry, and even though it was fun...it was boring and dry. Even when it was fun. Still, would make a cool movie.
