Thirty-three year-old Jane Hayes, who has a fairly serious (and unhealthy) addiction to the Colin Firth version of Pride and Prejudice goes on a once-in-a-life trip to Pembrooke Park, the location of a resort where guests dress, talk, and act in ways Jane Austen would approve. Refusing to conform into a "socially-acceptable" nineteenth century woman in Austen's England, Jane finds herself quickly overcoming her obsession of Mr. Darcy that may have had her wishing for the fairy tale romance all her life.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, especially the different characters at the resort. If you are a fan of Jane Austen or contemporary works based on her books, I'd suggest giving this book a read. Stop by the reference desk to pick up a brochure on other Austen-related works.
