Review: Interesting premise
Rating: 4 out of 5

Jane Austen Girl had an interesting premise and it started off gangbusters--lively, funny, endearing. Then it turned into a much different read, a serious, somber book that left me feeling a bit betrayed, like I'd been dealt a bait and switch. While the story compelled me to finish it, it didn't quite fulfill its potential. And the title was merely a calculated marketing ploy since its relevance to the storyline was paper-thin. While some parts were inspired, I guess I expected more from the entire work.
