review 1: I got this book free from B&N and didn't think I'd like it, but she managed to pull me in and get me to read Northanger Abbey as well.A college literature teacher decides to take a year, visit 6 South America countries and have average people read a Jane Austen book (in spanish) and see if the different culture reacts like the Americans do.Along the way her spanish improves, and she falls in love. The falling in love part may be what kept me reading at first, I wanted to see who she ends up with! I know it sounds dry, but it is interesting and a good read.
review 2: This is a light fun read. I would recommend reading it month by month and not all at once. She gives good tips and fun ideas for ways to celebrate the holidays and seasons. While I understand s... morehe's a British author some of her suggestions about places to go or trips to take were much more UK centered, not a problem just not completely relative. I think my biggest qualm was at times the writing was a bit juvenile or seemed like an article out of 17 Magazine. less
