Are you an Austen fan? OR What are you reading?

I am a huge fan and was so thrilled to get a copy of Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly published by Kensington Books on tour with Austen Prose.  The cover is so pretty and shares parts of Murder in Highbury, Emma and is so colorful!

Review: Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly is a cozy mystery that takes place soon after Emma by Jane Austen ends. The story begins as Emma Knightly and Harriet Martin discover Mrs. Augusta Elton’s body inside Highbury’s church. Who could do such a thing? The entire Highbury community is in an uproar as they try to unravel the mystery of Mrs. Elton’s murderer!


I absolutely LOVED this story! The author did an amazing job continuing the story of Emma in the most creative way while staying true to the story of Emma. I felt like the original story was simply continuing making Murder in Highbury a joy to read. I loved getting to know some of my favorite characters more in depth, and absolutely enjoyed my time in Highbury. The mystery was very intriguing and I kept turning the pages to see what would happen next.


Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly is well written, has engaging characters, and stays true to Jane Austen’s story, Emma! I think any fan of historical fiction, Jane Austen’s novels, and Regency mysteries will be intrigued! I highly recommend Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly! This will be a favorite of 2024 for me!
