But where Austen pulls inspiration from haunted and gothic novels, James pulls inspiration from the Twilight saga. In "Northanger Alibi," Claire Hart, the younger sister of Chloe from the first book in the series, "Pride and Popularity," travels ...

We're safely in Auckland, NZ, and holed up at our favorite B on the planet, the Eden Park Bed and Breakfast. Though we've been here once before with friends J, this is our first time to meet the new resident canine: Mr. Darcy. Darcy's a spoodle -- a cross between a cocker spaniel and a poodle. He's bouncy, cuddly, always on the lookout for a friendly lap to sit in, and quite the ambassador for the place. He's taken a shine to me, and I like...

In my opinion, no one played the leading male character in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, like Colin Firth. He IS Mr. Darcy. So much so, that the writers of Bridget Jones’s Diary gave his character the last name Darcy as a nod to his famous role.

Shannon Hale's Midnight in AustenlandI enjoyed Austenland quite a bit, so was eager to read this sequel/companion, where another woman goes on the Austen-themed vacation and meets a whole new cast of Austen-esque characters (with one memorable returnee from the previous book)--and was pleased that this one had a mystery thrown into the plot (a la Northanger Abbey).
