review 1: 'She was angry with Kelly....., with Ned...., and with Julia.... Most of all, she was angry with herself for allowing it all to happen and for not standing up for herself sooner.' This quote comes towards the end of the book....I was angry with her for this a lot sooner. Her indecisiveness annoyed the hell out of me and I thought of finishing with the book a few times. The story just seemed to be all over the place. It felt as if the author wasn't exactly sure where he was heading and he seemed to bring in characters just to get himself out of plot holes he'd dug us into. Also, for my memory, too many characters.
review 2: Great follow-up to the first book in the series, Jane Bites Back! Ford continues his success in writing a hilarious and delightful book told
... more through the eyes of our heroine, Jane Austen the vampire. As she deals with writer's block, the movie production of her first novel, the imminent arrival of her boyfriend's Jewish mother, and the lessons on harnessing her vampire powers with Lord Bryon, I found myself falling in love with her sarcastic wit and eagerly anticipating the next scenes. I enjoyed the intricacies of the plot and subplots, and the introduction of new and continuing characters, especially Walter's mother and her cat, Lilith. I am starting the next book, Jane Vows Vengeance, ASAP! Definitely recommended with readers who are fans of the first novel, as well as Jane Austen/period fiction with paranormal elements! less
