review 1: As much as I love Jane Austen, I couldn't finish this book. The character may have been one of my favorite Austen ones, but the writing style, dialogue, and way the characters acted in this book were VERY unAusten-like. It was set in the proper time period, but the characters acted and spoke in a very modern way. You know how you read a Jane Austen book and there's all that tension based on etiquette and social norms of the time? Yeah well, that's all gone here.
review 2: Another Jane Austen story from the hero's perspective.

I'm looking forward to the next one. less
