Review: The Jane Austen Society



The Jane Austen Society by Natalie Jenner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

📚 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀! I recently finished reading Emma by Jane Austen and it has become my favourite by this great author. I read Emma in preparation for reading this highly anticipated book by Natalie Jenner: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘁𝘆. The story takes place between 1932 and 1946 in the town of Chawton, Hampshire where Jane Austen spent ten years of her life and wrote her last three novels. A group of eclectic Austen’s book lovers unites to create a museum to honour Ms. Austen and save the great library from the Great House where Ms. Austen lived part of her life. The characters are all wonderful and lovable. I was fascinated by the lives of these relatable characters and how they all work together for a greater cause. Natalie Jenner’s writing is superb and provides a feel-good sentiment towards this extraordinary group of people. This is a must-read for all Austen lovers.

🙋🏼‍♀️ Thank you, 𝗦𝘁. 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻'𝘀 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 for sending me an ARC of this wonderful book. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘁𝘆 by Natalie Jenner will be available at your favourite bookstore on May 26, 2020.

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her  by  Liz Plum My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

This book celebrates the strength of female friendships, emphasizing the significance of history, familiarity, and loyalty in sustaining these connections over time.

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves  by  Ingrid Chabbert My rating:  5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
