Book Corner: Midnight in Austenland

Midnight in Austenland
By: Shannon Hale



What kind of read is it?
Similar to Austenland... same location, a few same characters, but very different story.  This one is a mystery and calls back to Northanger Abbey and the Bronte sisters more (old house, murder mystery, general spookiness).  The main character is divorced and trying to heal from a painful experience.

Why did I read it?
Because I loved the first one!

Favorite quotes from the book?
"But fluttery hope suggested that when she was ready to open back up, perhaps all emotions wouldn't be stones-pressing-chest horrible." (p.10)  

What will I remember most about this book?
Solving the mystery!
