What Would Jane Austen Do? by Linda Corbett

What Would Jane Austen Do? By Linda Corbett is a pure delight for anyone who loves Jane Austen and/or romantic comedies. Maddy Shaw is a journalist who just lost her job. She is a lover of all things Jane Austen. She does her last interview with grumpy author Cameron Massey on Valentine’s Day. He is far from cordial. She inherits a country home and must stay for a year, and thinks she sees him close by. Where will this take us?

This was the perfect read for me with lovely banter, Jane Austen quotes opening each chapter, sweet romance, and a touch of mystery and humor. Maddy like all Jane Austen heroines changes and grows throughout the story. Cameron brings in a touch of reality and transforms as well. I loved visiting Cotlington, England and imagined myself taking long walks into town and meeting the residents who were delightful and funny throughout the story. As a huge Jane Austen fan the references and quotes from her books made this a fabulous story.

This delightful read will amuse you with the Austen references, great banter, and small town English setting. I highly recommend What Would Jane Austen Do by Linda Corbett.

I was given a copy by the publisher and not required to write a positive review.
