We just get a little taste and then are able to imagine the rest of the storyline for ourselves. These extra storylines are why Austen retellings and spin-offs appeal to me so much. <br /><br />alyssa@alyssagoodnight.com<br />Thank you!

I had an immediate desire for this book and so am grateful for this giveaway. :) I prefer short stories in an anthology as opposed to a whole novel. Each story is self-contained and yet when seen with others, is based on a specific theme. Austen-inspired short stories just make it worth all the more. Different perspectives and what-ifs are portrayed, my absolute favourite!<br />My email address isJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08431930592804614742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954683999390981517.post-29961770601841753492011-10-15T04:41:01.726+02:002011-10-15T04:41:01.726+02:00Ahem. kescah at gmail dot comAhem. kescah at gmail dot comDebra Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256313302199653185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954683999390981517.post-31544597171557297412011-10-15T04:39:46.467+02:002011-10-15T04:39:46.467+02:00There's a book I'd love to win!
