Jane Austen's Guide to Dating

By Lauren Henderson

     Jane Austen's books have captivated fans ever since they were first published two hundred years ago. Her beloved characters have touched the lives of all who have taken the time to discover them. Growing up, I was totally engrossed in Ms. Austen's writing. Many times I found myself daydreaming about being one of her beloved characters.

   I was overjoyed when I discovered Lauren Henderson's Jane Austen's Guide to Dating had been written. Being single and still in search for that special someone, I can appreciate a book that gives me helpful advice that will actually work. The concept of this book is centered on the characters of Ms. Austen's books. I found each page provided clear sensible dating advice that other similar books lack. As an added bonus it gave me the book summaries to refresh my memory. This aspect will be invaluable to someone who may have missed a book to two. In addition there is a quiz that lets you see which character you closely resemble, based on the answers you provide.

    "Sense and Sensibility" takes on new heights in Lauren Henderson's highly acclaimed book. The time-old proven advice she offers can definitely lead true love to your door. I highly encourage anyone who is single to read, experience, and follow the advice in this book. The accurate information and the thrill of revisiting much loved characters are enough to make this book a winner in my eyes.
