Christina Morland | 25 comments Hi, all! Today is my birthday, so I'm offering The Year in Between: A Sense and Sensibility Variation for free today!

Giving presents is as good as getting them, or so Marianne believes (she gives Colonel Brandon a gift on her birthday; she inspired me)!

If you don't know much about the book or want to read an excerpt, check out my Austen Variations post from yesterday. (https://austenvariations.com/a-free-b...)

The book is free today (Sept. 2) until 11:59 pm Pacific Time. Thanks!

Thanks. I'll go get it. Btw goodreads has misspelled the title. They show Lord Lonbourn.

Talia (kneyda) | 1 comments There is a new beautiful board game coming out for Jane Austen fans called Endearment by Dux Somnium Games. You become one of Miss Austen's heroines trying to improve your accomplishments to attract the perfect suitor. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

I love the jewelry box edition.

I have backed this company before for 2 of their games. The quality is terrific and the company is extremely focused on their product and customers. I think this is the best Jane Austen game I have ever seen.

Thanks, Katja.

Does Melanie Rachel know? Has it been reported to Amazon.


message 44: by wosedwew (new)

wosedwew | 210 comments Just checked at Amazon.

The book is available as KU, but this note is in the review blurb:
Amazon has noticed unusual reviewing activity on this product. Due to this activity, we have limited this product to verified purchase reviews.

So Amazon is aware of something, at least.
