I really enjoyed this book. I would definitely read more by this author. However, don't get me started on the parents that were portrayed in the story... some of them need some serious help! LOL! I gave this book 4 stars. (January)

I‘ve seen multiple sources recommending this 2018 publication recently and it is, simply put, not worth any of that buzz. This is a basic, surface-level “romance” with very little character depth or emotion, and I‘m just not buying the basic premise.

This quirky cozy mystery/romance was perfect for a quick read.

Here are the retellings I'm hoping to tackle this month for the #JaneAustenThenAndNow read: spicy S&S in a beach town, an S&S murder mystery, a polarizing modern version, and three YA takes because dang it, I love YA. Authors Rosie Rushton and Staci Hart have adapted all of Austen's novels, and while I've read Rushton's before, Hart's are new to me. We'll see how this goes...! Anyone else out there looking for some S&S-adjacent reads for February?

eeclayton I've read the Trollope, I'll be curious to see what you think. This month, I'm going to try 4d
Bookwormjillk I‘m going to read the Trollope. I read it when it first came out but I want to read it again. 4d

Andrea313 @eeclayton @Bookwormjillk Did you like the Trollope? Reviews online are mixed so I'm not sure what to expect! And I definitely want to hear @eeclayton 's thoughts on Jane of Austin! I'm curious about it, but too many books and too little time... 4d
bookandbedandtea These all look good! I have one overlap on my list. 4d
Andrea313 @bookandbedandtea Which one will we both be reading? 4d
Crinoline_Laphroaig Oooh. I like this list. Also think S&S lends itself to YA. 4d
Andrea313 @Crinoline_Laphroaig Yes, definitely! A roadmap for "coming of age" stories. 4d
Andrea313 @bookandbedandtea I'm starting it today! Hope we both enjoy. 🧡🧡 4d
eeclayton @Andrea313 I didn't like the Trollope, but I hope it'll work better for you! 4d
Bookwormjillk @Andrea313 I was meh about the Trollope, but I didn‘t read them back to back. I‘m thinking having the original top of mind will improve it. 4d

My second Hilderbrand. This wasn‘t as good as the last I read but still enjoyable.

I loved this book when it came out and felt the connection to "Frannie" that everyone told me I would feel about Holden Caulfield...I enjoyed getting to step back into this world

My February choice for #ThematicCozies is A Rather Lovely Inheritance, which I have had on my shelves for I-don‘t-know-how-many years. So happy to finally be reading it!

What will everyone else be reading?

This is the most unique Jane Austen spin-off I‘ve ever read. I have myself sometimes wondered what it would have been like to be in Jane Austen‘s world, like one of her heroines. Courtney behaved naughtier than I would have. I think I would have been more scared after the whole asylum threat from her mother. Regardless, I enjoyed it! I would have liked a little more information at the end, but it was still satisfying. I recommend for Austen fans.
