Book Review: Jane Austen Made Me Do It

August 6, 2016 By pgarry

As you can tell, I am still working through my Jane Austen addiction. The full title of this book is Jane Austen Made Me Do It – Original Stories Inspired by Literature’s Most Astute Observer of the Human Heart, Edited by Laurel Ann Nattress.

This is a really good book of short stories – 22 of them, each different from the next, each totally immersive. When each tale is complete, for just a moment I was lost between the two worlds. There are surely a lot of good writers in the world today – and so many of them are writing in Jane Austen’s voice!
