Title: Perfectly Terrible
Review: I am in complete shock that this book has received such an excellent rating from other Austen fans. I thought it was absolutely terrible. "Excellently mimics the language, the structure, and the dialog of an Austen novel"?? Has this person read a Jane Austen novel? I felt that the author strained at every turn to sound "Austenesque" while never actually achieving it. And as for the plot, it was nothing short of contrived and trite. There was no clever weaving of the story line, no intricate details, no anything that is deserving of so many stars for an Austen sequel. Don't be fooled!
