austenland



i got a great recommendation for this book (love you ashley), so i went to the library after work, picked it up, and came home and read it. it was so cute! anyone who likes jane austen will find this book entertaining.

the jist of the story is that Jane (early thirties, leaving in NYC, graphic designer for a magazine, single) has a secret obsession with Mr. Darcy. she compares guys to him, which is one reason she is still single. anyways, her great-aunt dies and leaves Jane a vacation to England in her will, requiring her to take part in a role play of life during the "austen years" for three weeks.

putting two and two together, any austen fan can pretty much figure out the story, but with a few twists and turns, this book sure doesn't disappoint. i recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun and quick read. perfect for the beach!
