If you have been reading this blog or knowing me for some time, you will perhaps already know this, but I LOVE Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice is my all-time favourite novel and I try to reread it at least once a year. Which is in fact due around Christmas I think :)So I was really excited to read ...
I hate to admit this, but Pride and Prejudice is possibly my least favorite Austen novel. Terrible but true. (I'm a Persuasion and Sense and Sensibility fangirl all the way.)

Captain Wentworth’s diary is one of the diaries of Jane Austen heroes written by Amanda Grange. This is the fourth Amanda Grange novel for me, and I truly enjoyed it like I did with the previous novels as well. The reviews to the previous Amanda Grange titles I’ve read can be found from these links:...
Mr. Darcy’s Christmas Carol by Carolyn Eberhart - 1 starI really tried to give this novella a good chance. However, it just didn’t pull me in. I found it to be lacking in many places, so unfortunately I did not finish it. However, I know many others enjoyed this novella and found it the best out of ...
