It’s one of those books that you finish and then want to shout about to everyone who will listen. It is a delightful modern-day reimagining of Jane Austen’s life, full of rich and nuanced characters. 'Rachel Givney’s Jane in Love is everything I wanted it to be and more. She must find a way to stop herself disappearing from history before it’s too late.Ī modern-day reimagining of the life of one of the world’s most celebrated writers, this wonderfully witty romantic comedy offers a new side to Jane’s story, which sees her having to choose between true love in the present and her career as a writer in the past. But as Jane’s romance with Fred blossoms, her presence in the literary world starts to waver. She is also delighted to discover that she is now a famous writer, a published author of six novels and beloved around the globe. She forms a new best friend in fading film star Sofia Wentworth, and a genuine love interest in Sofia’s brother Fred, who has the audacity to be handsome, clever and kind-hearted. Magically, she finds herself in modern-day England, where horseless steel carriages line the streets and people wear very little clothing. She is forced to take extreme measures in her quest to find true love – which lands her in the most extraordinary of ‘Artfully written and engaging, Jane in Love is a lively effusion of wit and humour.'Īt age twenty-eight, Jane Austen should be seeking a suitable husband, but all she wants to do is write.
