Hi readers, here we are at the end of another month, and also another year!!
While 2018 itself, may for some be a good year, a great year, or a bad year, for the Austenesque genre it was definitely a GREAT year! Don’t you think? I’m so thankful for all the lovely authors that keep publishing their stories and all the new authors that published their first works this year! Thank you so much for all the enjoyment these stories provide!
Here’s a list of Austenesque Novel Finds for December 2018 for your perusing pleasure!

I am so excited that you will be reading “Avenger.” December was a hugely busy month!
It sure was! I will spend most of 2019 catching up on all the great reads of 2018! 😉
Goodness! Another big month of publishing and reading. As readers, we really are fortunate to live in times such as this. Out of ALL that I’ve only read the remarkable “Seasons of Waiting” by Christina Morland, Anngela Schroeder’s sweet Christmas offering “An Unexpected Merry Gentleman” and Don Jacobson’s latest in the Wardrobe series.
Yes! Absolutely! I completely agree! What great choices to read from this collection! All sound fantastic!
I love how you’re always “in the know” with all of the releases.

I am trying!! I do miss a few occasionally! But hopefully not too many!
Wow! I have only read one book from this list, An Unexpected Merry Gentleman: A Pride and Prejudice Christmas Novella . I just read a great review for Seasons of Waiting. There are so many books released this month, I feel like I need to number my to read pile because the previous ones just keep getting pushed aside. Happy New Year.
Great choices!! And not a bad idea…I try to stay organized, but it is hard to keep up!
I have only read two of these! Thanks for the reminder of how far behind I am with my reading! 🙂
LOL! I never need a reminder for that…it is always embarrassingly apparent! Hope you get to enjoy some more soon!
I bought and read A Gift For Elizabeth and An Unexpected Merry Gentleman. I also read How Darcy saved Christmas as it was posting and Henry when Joy put it up for free for a few days and they are on my list to buy. I loved all 4.
I have a couple on my list – Darcy and Deception and Seasons of Waiting and I will check the rest out.
Thank you so much Meredith for sharing these lists, Happy Reading and Happy Travelling!
Great choices!! I’m so glad to hear you loved all 4!!
Hope you are enjoying a wonderful month of reading, Glynis!
I want to read the ones you mentioned also. I have read a number of those listed already. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! If anyone can keep up, it is you, Sheila!
Well, I’m really behind. Still trying to catch up after company left on New Year’s Eve. And wow, what I have missed. I missed at least three Austenesque posts until days after they appeared. Wait. That’s not atypical for me at all!
There are a whopping two handfuls of books from this list that I must absolutely read and maybe as many more I’m very curious about. I think that’s a record for the entire year. What a bountiful December. I COULD stop buying books now and never run out of reading material for perhaps two years. But it would kill me. :/
I’m reading Don Jacobson’s latest Wardrobe offering and all I can say so far, is ‘whoa!’ It starts out with a bang and then moves really fast and then faster to the next ‘bang.’ omg !! I’ve read some excerpts on Leenie Brown’s site from her release about Mary Crawford, and I’m definitely going to be reading that. Well, like I said ‘two handfuls,’ so I won’t list them all, those were just the two I was already familiar with. Happy January.
