Curious about all the Austenesque novels published this past month? Here you go! 🙂
*This list will be updated in the next couple of days as amazon sometimes takes a day or two to show newly added releases in search results…and also because technically June isn’t over yet.
**This is a list of books published, not my personal recommendations. (Some of these books are for Mature Audiences only, make sure you read all book descriptions carefully before purchasing!)

Out of these 33 books listed for June: I have read 1, have 0 on my soon-to-be-read list, and have added 7 more to my ever-growing wish-list!
**If you notice I’m missing any, please do let me know! 🙂
I have only read three so don’t feel bad. Just too much. I will never read them all but will check out the reviews and the sample to select a few. Thanks for the list again.
Which 3? Any you’d recommend? 🙂
I read Ardently, Mr. Darcy’s Rival and Denial of Conscience and recommend all three.
Add to that Behind Pemberley’s Walls and For Peace of Mind in the last two days.
Thanks Meredith. These lists represent a lot of work on your part, so do know we appreciate that. There are some automatic add-to-the-wish-list authors on this list which is very exciting. There are quite a few authors new to me, and I vote for you try some of them and report to us. This is selfish. Don’t take up the sword if you don’t desire the battle, though. 🙂 We all understand it’s just overwhelming how many writers are taking up the challenge of the P&P fan fiction popularity. Even YOU only have 24 hours in a day. Although, obviously you use your 24 hours more efficiently than most people I know personally.
The trouble with so many new authors coming on the scene along with the many favorites, for me at least, is that I am reluctant to try the new when so much known pleasure awaits my reading time and budget. That’s only one of the things I use your blog and others for, discovering new ones. No pressure. 😉 But it doesn’t outweigh the joy I feel when I see a new email from Austenesque featuring a new work by a beloved known author, or joy of joys an interview of a guest author.
Your work is cut out for you, Meredith.
This is the way I feel after reading your blog today….or at the bookstore….or even browsing Amazon, 😉

This is a little embarrassing, I’m replying to my own reply…..This old painting makes me think of Mr. Bennet visiting Mr. Darcy’s library after Elizabeth and Darcy are living at Pemberley.
Thank you, Michelle, you are such a dear! 🙂 I hope my reviews are helpful, that is what I wish for most with them! I know what you mean about the quandary between staying with authors you are familiar with and trying news ones! I believe my tried and true authors keep me busy enough, I’m never lacking for a new book to read! But then I think of some authors that I recently read for the first time and I’m so very glad I did because their book quickly became a favorite!
If you have any book in particular you’d like to see me try, let me know! Maybe I can look into it! Since so many books are being published each month, I have grown more selective and might not choose to read everything…plus I’m pretty sure it is impossible!
Love the image you shared! That is so cute! I feel the same way! I think that would be a great painting to hang in a library!
How about ‘Ardently’ by Caitlin Williams. That comes in paperback, as you stated a preference for in another reply. She is a new author to me, and the bare bones story outline I found sounds interesting.
I highly recommend Ardently!
Thank you!!! Have it on my wishlist!
I haven’t read any of those, but 7 are on my wishlist, too. Nice finds!
Thanks! Making these posts show me how not up-to-date I am! LOL!
Thank you so much for putting this new feature together. I too have added some to my wishlist and have read 4 of the ones you have listed. It is hard keeping up but it certainly helps to ‘feed my addiction’!
You are doing an awesome job of keeping up! 🙂 Let us know if any of the 4 you read are ones you’d recommend!
I have read 1, sample of 2, added about 6 to my wish list. I agree with Michelle. 32 and lots being new authors in the genre I’m mostly sticking to my tried and true usual authors. Plus the mature audience only as you know isn’t my cup of tea. Great job meredith!
Thanks, Suzan! Glad the list helps! With so many books being published readers can have many options! For me, tried and true authors get an automatic add to the wishlist, but I do like to try some new authors as well. 🙂
As always, the amount of novels is amazing! Thanks for the information!. By the way, your post about the Phenomena fan of Jane Austen is fantastic, full of details and shows the importance Jane Austen’s World has today 😉
I know! This list makes me truly feel how so very impossible it would be to ever catch up! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed my review for Fan Phenomena, it was such a fun book to read!
I’ve read eight completely and samples of three. Since I limit myself to clean reads, there are some that are definite “no’s” for me. That narrows the field. With that said, I should be spending more time writing than reading so that’s my goal for July. Let’s see how this works.
Thanks ever so much for this list. I’d missed many.
Wow, Joy! That is awesome! My field narrows by a large margin since I only read paperbacks…a lot of titles are short stories and I think they are only being released in digital format. Let us know if any of the 8 you read are worthy of your recommendation! 😉
Best of luck with the writing!
Wow look at me in there. Mine is a novelisation of my Musical that I am performing in Edinburgh this year if anyone plans to be at the Fringe. (Promise and Promiscuity)
🙂 Would be so cool to see a Jane Austen inspired musical!! Wish I lived closer!
Love your lists, Meredith! So many great pointers for summer reading!
Thank you, Joana! I’m forever making them! 😉
Jack Caldwell’s Elysian Dreams just came out on 30th June. Check it out on Amazon. Best of all for you, Meredith, is that it is also released in paperback format.
Thanks! Will update and add this weekend. 🙂
