An Enthusiastic Review of L.M. Romano's' Debut Novel, Forgotten Betrothal + Giveaway

Image
  It is my pleasure to introduce and offer a review of L.M. Romano's debut novel, Forgotten Proposal . In recent months, I've been preoccupied by and rather busy with various summer amusements. As a result, my reading has been rather hit and miss. In some cases, it has taken me weeks to finish a single book. Slow reading also tends to be the case when I am not particularly drawn into the story. Sadly, I've also encountered quite a few less than riveting variations this year. Luckily, neither of these issues were of concern with my most recent read. From the minute I opened  Forgotten Betrothal , however, I was drawn in and ultimately finished it more quickly than any book I've read in some time. More than once I even read well into the night (a perk of summer vacation)! Forgotten Proposal includes a lot of the elements I love to find in works of Austenesque fiction--including (but not limited to): a determinedly charming Mr Darcy, compelling new characters, a dash of m...

A Review of Susan Adriani's "Misunderstandings & Ardent Love" + Giveaway

Image
 Today, the Jane Austen State of Mind blog brings you a review of Susan Adriani's new release, "Misunderstandings & Ardent Love." I hope my thoughts on the book whet your appetite for more and move you to read it! First of all, I would be remiss if I did not give a nod to the beautiful cover. Ms. Adriani's work, in my opinion, has become the gold standard for JAFF cover art. If I ever finish my book, I sincerely hope she will agree to design one for me! Lord knows I've compiled quite a Pinterest page full of Regency era paintings to draw from! But, as usual, I digress. I'm sharing my thoughts in no particular order. One thing I particularly liked about the book was the authentic interactions between the cannon and original characters. In particular, I found two new characters quite refreshing and entertaining. The first is a fine gentleman who is a relation to the Lucases as well as Lizzy's childhood friend. The second new character is an irreverent au...

Part 2: A Personal Review of The Mistress of All

Image
  Less than a week ago, I wrote a post about one of my favorite JAFF authors, Lory Lilian, and her newest book, "The Mistress of All." If you haven't already, please consider reading my first blog post about her and the book. That first post (Part 1)  provided information about Lory's background, previous books, a summary of the book, and an excerpt from The Mistress of All (MOA). Since that last post, rave reviews on Amazon for MOA have continued to pour in, far exceeding the number for many well-regarded books in the Austenesque genre (including some of my favorites) that have been out for years. Moreover, the 164 reviews MOA has received so far average 4.5 out of 5 stars! One of the many 5-star ratings was my own.  A few reasons for my 5-start review are as follows: 1) This quote from the book is about the evolution of Elizabeth and Darcy's relationship is EVERYTHING!! I bookmarked it, screenshotted it, and exclaimed out loud as I read it (silly, I know, but th...
