  1. This is terrific- Thanks so much for listing these. I’ve just recently started reding some of these shorter works and have found them to be entertaining and quick. Wonderful!

  2. Have you ever been able to get your hands on a copy of Anna Austen Lefroy’s Sanditon? I really love Sanditon continuations, Another Lady’s being my favorite, and have long wondered where Jane Austen’s niece took the story.

  4. No I haven’t read any other except for the one by another lady. I loved that one so much, but to read one written by a relative of Austen’s would be interesting.
