I liked this book, but it was really hard to get into at the beginning. It may have had something to do with the fact that I'm not a fan of reading letters. Also I hate when books keep describing clothes in detail every time there is a change of clothes. It bugs me. But this was a cute little book.
Oh my heavens!!! I loved this book! I'm going to admit that I didn't think I would like it so I put off reading it. I have stared guiltily at for the last few weeks but I finally started it and couldn't put it down. I read it in one sitting. I fell in love with Kate and Cecy and their adventures are...
Bit of a slog at the beginning, which is likely due to my own problems with the story structure. It begins as exchanged letters between two teenage girls, seemingly Victorian era. I can see how this would be attractive to collaborating authors, and fans of letter writing everywhere, but I always ha...

There was nothing in this book that wasn't 100% predictable from the very beginning, but I loved every single second I spent reading it. It was a great ride--and I'll be on the lookout for the next two books even though I read they aren't nearly as good.
If you like fantasy and Jane Austen, read this book. I just finished it and it is absolutely delightful. I have to request the sequel. If no one has the sequel I will cry.This is the story of two cousins, told in letters written between the two when one is in Essex (where they both live) and one is ...
A fantastical, young adult version of Austen’s Lady Susan and Love and Freindship, or Burney’s Evelina, this is the story of two young girls who encounter Society, dangerous magical artifacts, and True Love. It is told through a series of letters between the two girls. It’s a fun, light read, and I ...
