Thank you Jane for Mansfield Park, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Persuasion, Sense and Sensability, and Northanger Abbey! Hope you are enjoying Jane Austen week, with a bit of Jane inspired books. I will link up all the reviews this week here at the end of the week, and in the meantime enjoy more contemporary books inspired by Jane Austen's popularity! And don't be shy, share your favorite Jane Austen book here! Tell me what other Jane inspired book you've read and liked! And of course you can always share your Birthday wishes with Jane!
