@142 Mary Lou, Great Job!!!
@141 Lenora, you are moving right along.
@149 Teresa, no worries, you'll get under way soon enough.


I loved this story line and it not only showed mary in a better light but lady catherine as well

This is another that seems expensive for a relatively short (81 pages) book. How did you rate it, Lenora?

I rated this 4-4.5 stars

This was an appropriate ending to series. Each book was better than the one before it, and it was good to see Georgianna come i to her own

11.) In the Neighborhood of Buckthorn Green 3 stars
12.) Find You in Paris 4 stars
13.) Further Down the Road 3.5 stars
14.) The Best Part of Love 5 stars
15.) A Singular Proposition (unpublished) 4.5 stars

Those novellas can be tricky for plot development. Glad you liked it, Lenora, even with all that was going on.

I paused in the reading of "Dance the Tide" (1000 pages) to read 3 KU books so I am now back to that book.

Short book but I liked it. I especially liked finding out Charlotte was stronger than always portrayed and did not let Lady Catherine rule her house

1. The Best Part of Love - Rated 4.5 Stars ☆☆☆☆☆
I was a little worried to start The Best Part of Love. I really wanted to love it, as the author is a highly-rated, beloved online fan fiction writer in the JAFF community (I tend to be a more critical reviewer and I genuinely did not want this to be all hype). As I am not keen on reading online, The Best Part of Love, as the author’s first published work, is my introduction to Amy D'Orazio.
And I was not disappointed! I thoroughly enjoyed this unique and imaginative variation.
I look forward to reading more from Amy and hope that she publishes more of her many other online stories.
2. My BFF - Rated 3.5 Stars ☆☆☆
3. A Twist of Fate - Rated 3 Stars ☆☆☆
4. Further Down the Road - Rated 3 Stars ☆☆☆
5. Duty Demands: A Pride and Prejudice Variation - Rated 3.5 Stars ☆☆☆

Soooo.... didja LIKE it?

But one thing this author did is provide links to songs that Darcy was singing to Elizabeth or a band played or some such. Lovely music! Perfect words to fit the story.

Yes, although I have to say that while sex scenes, if well written, have never been a negative with me and this author does write a very hot and descriptive love scene...towards the end I was skimming over some as it just got to be a few too many. She does have a very serious issue arise between Will and Elizabeth which provides a time of angst in the middle of the story. Collins and Wickham are cousins and W. uses the date rape drug in this story - you may want to slit his throat!!!!
I would rate it a 4 star book...it is not one I would reread as it is just too long. I will try to read her other stories as I said b/c she does write a good story.

A very good book. This is a reread and was just as good the second time around

I loved this I wish she would publish."
Oh, I have wanted to start this one...how would you rate it? 4 or 5 stars?

A very good book. This is a reread and was just as good the second time around"
I enjoyed this one also.
Neat that your re-read stayed a perfect 5 star. I love re-reading books I like, but sometimes if it's been awhile, I'm afraid that I won't like it as much.
Way to go on hitting number 17, Lenora.

It was an interesting book. Made me wonder if mrs bennets nerves were because of the way mr bennet's treatment
