Jane has an obsession, "Pride and Prejudice", that is, Colin Firth's Mr. Darcy. She has not been able to find love, looking for an ideal that, so far, doesn't exist. When an aunt passes away, and as a bequest, leaves Jane three weeks at Austenland, a Regency-era playworld, Jane decides to go and live this obsession out, and then bid it goodbye once and far all. But the fantasy soon becomes hard to distinguish from reality. Jane must decide if Mr. Darcy is worth chasing after all.
I am a big Jane Austen fan and this was a wonderful treat. It felt very Bridget Jones' Diary meets Jane Austen. I would so love to go to a place like this if I ever won the lottery. This was a wonderful book and I wholeheartedly recommend it to all Jane Austen fans.
