My Jane Austen Summer

My Jane Austen Summer

Lily's mother just died, she just lost her job and her boyfriend just broke up with her. Figuring she has nothing to lose, she decides to sell her clothes and her furniture and move to England for the summer to take part in Literature Live--where the books of her favorite author, Jane Austen, are re-enacted. Things do not quite work out like she had planned though--she does not get a part in the plays, the business is not doing well financially and she falls in love with a man who is unavailable. This was decent chick lit, though sometimes I wanted to wake Lily up with a slap. Overall, I enjoyed the book. Love the Jane Austen connection.
