  1. What a great post! May I link to it from my blog in an upcoming post? I intend to list the Austenesque novels I have read during my two year quest to read nothing but Austen-inspired literature.

  2. This was a big year. I went through that list and counted only 10 that I had read. I have several on my wish list and one in my TBR pile.

    Thanks for the great reference list!

  3. Hi there, seems to have been quite an active Jane Austen inspired year. I did read one book that I did not find (or did I not spot it?) on here and that is the very cute and lovely ‘Prom & Prejudice’ by Elizabeth Eulberg. Did find out by the use of Twitter and did order it right away even when I knew it was rather written for youngsters. But I did find a very refreshing and I do think/hope that the younger generation might get into the originals after reading this one. I did already made others read it an most of them did like it a great deal. One even said:’You wish that the story could go on and on forever!’. And that is what I did think when I finished ‘Pride&Prejudice’ at the time. So I guess deserves to be mentioned. Meredith, thank you for keerping the Jane Austen spirit alive and kicking and hopefully we keep up our pen pal commitment. Caroline X

  4. Thanks for this compilation – I was really happy that there are several books I hadnt heard of before! Ive read 25 on the list and have several more on my TBR list. Of the ones Ive read, the only one I was disappointed with was P&P:The Wild and Wanton edition, just because it was too much quoting JA and not enough original material. But that’s just MHO, of course.

  5. When you update your database – can you reference your ‘star’ rating along with the genre? I really depend on your reviews, and I know that it’ll help me when I’m choosing which books to download on my Kindle next.

    Great job, Meredith – how many hours a week do you put into the blog? I do love writing, but I’m not disciplined enough to do it consistently!

  6. Meredith, I love your reviews and feel I can trust them. They are fair & honest. My goal is to write quality & respectable reviews like yours. Thank you for all the time, effort, & energy you put into your blog. It is one of my favorites! I read 28 books off this list. Hopefully this year I can add a few more!

  7. Thanks for your list, Meredith and for the keys to the novels. I like having access to that especially. I have read several on your list and some of them more than once. I read one since seeing it on your list and have added several to my TBR list! (I am eagerly waiting for some of the new 2012 releases.) I value your reviews as they are a good guide for my list. Thanks again for all your work and for this blog. Hope you have a fantastic year.

  8. Hi, Meredith. Thanks for the list; it’s amazing. Just thought I’d let you know that I also published SoulFire in 2011. It’s also a paranormal variation. It came out in December, making that grand total 60!

  9. I’m sorry, Meredith. I just went back through the list and I saw SoulFire. I tried to remove my post, but I’m technically challenged and cannot figure out how to do it. You may remove both of the posts if you wish to do so.

  10. No worries, Robin! I have it listed by author instead of by title. Probably should have said that somewhere! So happy to have your books on the list this year, Robin! I hope to read them soon!

  11. I sure have my work cut out for me. What a time to take a hiatus from my Austenesque reading. I feel entirely out of date. This list will be very helpful in my attempts to catch up. As always, this resource is invaluable. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

  12. I’m just overwhelmed by all the kinds words many of you have left on this post! Thank you so much for dropping by and boosting my confidence! I’m just grinning ear to ear! Thank you sooooo much everyone! Running this blog has been so fulfilling and rewarding! I love meeting all these wonderful Austenesque readers!
