review 1: Having read I was Jane Austen's Best Friend (Book 1), this Jane Austen Stole my BF is a huge disappointment. I have a very high expectation on this novel. There is no mystery that Jenny will be married to Captain William (according to book 1 and history, of course). And this novel tells us the obstacles Jenny has to face before she can be united with her love. Hence IMO, the plot is predictable. I expected the author focuses on Jane Austen this time around. She has a very striking and interesting character, with her quick wit and great sense of humour. I am so intrigued to understand her thought. But to my frustration, Jane Austen is not the star in this story.On the other hand, the title had nothing to do with the story line, and I found myself wondering what was the a... morectual point of this story.
review 2: I was a little bit disappointed with this book. It was very well written, with light humour and great characters, yet the plot was not going anywhere. The title had nothing to do with the story line, and I found myself wondering what was the actual point of this story.I must say, that this book had made me once again appreciate that I am not a young girl, of a small fortune living in the 1800s. It was a very hard life for all, but especially for those of small financial means and prospects. It is hard to believe that women had no rights, not voice and in so many cases were unable to take control of their own future.Overall this book would be a great introduction to the life in Regency area. less
