About the author

Glenna Mason is the pen name of Glenna Mason Pope Harris. She was fondly called Glenna Mason in her hometown of Richmond, Kentucky, the setting of her six (so far) mystery romances. The first of her mystery/romances,
IN THE RAFTERS
A MILLICENT/LUTE MYSTERY/ROMANCE,
is now available on kindle and Amazon print. Glenna is also concentrating on her second love (after horses and central Kentucky) and that is British literature, with a special emphasis on Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, the most extraordinary work in the English language. Due to her love of Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet and her joy at their final arrival at a lasting romance for the ages, Glenna has crafted three JAFF novels of her own. The first, MR. DARCY AND THE LADY WITH THE FINE EYES, and the second, MR. DARCY'S FOREBODING, are currently available on Amazon kindle and in paperback through Amazon.

I bought a set of three books by this author when they were on sale hoping they would be good Pride and Prejudice variations. I really wanted to like them, but having read two so far, I am disappointed. The writing is juvenile and the style is in no way consistent with Austen's style. The dialogue is awkward and unrealistic. Worse, the author has her characters behave in ways that are completely inconsistent with the Recency era, for example, unmarried men and women introducing themselves, taking their shoes and socks off to wade in front of strangers, hugging and kissing in public, etc. I really cannot recommend this book or the first one in this series. I am not sure I will even read the third since I did not enjoy either of the first two.

Excruciating

This is one of the worst Jane Austen adaptation books, I have ever read.
All it seemed to do is continually make lists about events, guests and presents. There was no flow, any conceivable story line and was possibly the most boring book I have ever read. It’s last words were, “To be continued”; for the love of G-d please DO NOT continue it!

There’s a typo in the subtitle! It should be The Darcys no apostrophe! Sheesh.
