It was cute! As of right now, I don’t think I’ll revisit this book. It was a nice, but not a standout read. When I picked it up, I saw that it was an “Austentacious romance.” I understood that to mean that it was influenced by Jane Austen and would probably be a witty, light-hearted romance with light angst and a happy ending. I would say that’s mostly the case, (albeit with more angst), but the Jane Austen references were fairly excessive. Every single chapter contains a Jane Austen quote at the beginning, and references throughout. The characters discuss Jane Austen’s novels at length, too. It’s too much.
I’ll add more thoughts later if I have the energy.
