Agreed!!!

Oh Syrie...so difficult to put into words! Here are my initial thoughts. True Love: when 2 people understand each other inside & out better than anyone else in the world, when every moment you spend with that person is vibrant & makes you feel like a teenager, someone you would go to the ends of the earth & wait a lifetime for if you had to, someone who still gives you butterflies everytime they are near but everytime they are away from you - you can feel an empty spot in your chest, someone who makes you glow & even the smallest memory or thought of them brings a smile to your face. When you have found your true love - there are no boundaries on time or distance.

Hi Syrie,

What are your favorite books by each of these ladies?

That is so cool that you were able to visit all of these locations & for us as readers to know that they are all real. Thank you for sharing!

OMG - I would love to see this story as a movie!!! How long were you on your Jane Austen Tour of England for? Was it something that you put together yourself?

I never did until recently but I whole heartedly do now & reading about Jane & Mr. Ashford's initial exchanges completely reminded me of my own experience. All of the wondering, longing, & anticipation. I must admit that I highlighted some of the passages that were most dear to me.

Hi Syrie! First of all, thank you so much for doing a discussion group on here! This is awesome!

How long did it take you to research for The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen? You wrote so well from her point of view & the time period.

Hi Syrie & all!

I'm Amber from Northern California. I just recently finished "The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen" & wrote a review for it here on Goodreads. It was fabulous! I am a huge Jane Austen fan & I felt like I was really reading her journal. Truly engaging & wonderful! Thank you! I am definitely looking forward to reading "Nocturne" & after reading everyone else's comments, I think I will add "Dracula, My Love" to that list as well! Can't wait to chat!
