Journal Entry 1 by Caro1 from Newark On Trent, Nottinghamshire United Kingdom on Friday, March 16, 2007
Six people – five women and a man – meet once a month in California’s Central Valley to discuss Jane Austen’s novels. They are ordinary people, neither happy nor unhappy, but each of them is wounded in different ways, they are all mixed up about their lives and relationships. Over the six months they meet, marriages are tested, affairs begin, unsuitable arrangements become suitable – under the guiding eye of Jane Austen a couple of them even fall in love….
I wasn't expecting great literature but something amusing and not too taxing, and even then I was disappointed. I found the characters dull, and didn't much care what happened in their lives. A good idea, but the book failed to deliver.

Hmmm, not entirely sure how this escaped from whatever bookbox it arrived in, but I unearthed it in a pile of books and it's not really my sort of thing so I'm popping it in the Unloved & Unknown bookbox to get it travelling again
