Austenland: A Novel Audiobook (Unabridged)

" well, if I'd been a thinking reader, I could have predicted the entire plot...but it still managed ot surprise me when...(no spoilers)! So a good beach read, but nothing that will give your brain material to munch on for the next couple weeks. "

" This book was so fun. I ate it up in a couple days. I was a little skeptical at first, like..."maybe it'll be this cheesy adaptation without a real storyline" but NO! It was fantastic "

" Lets just say there is a sequel to this book that I will not be reading. "

" Fun read for a long flight, light and breezy. But predictable and not well written too, I didn't think the two lead characters had the great chemistry they were supposed to have. I think it will make a fun movie to watch though. "

" Is there such a place? I have to wonder. Perhaps there should be. For all of us Jane Austen lovers this is for you. You don't live in the regency period although you wonder what it might have been like to do so. You wish for maybe just a day or two, you could travel back in time to this outlandish period of love, respect, relaxation and propriety. Well here is your chance. With Shannon Hale, you are given the opportunity to explore what it may be like to visit that time period, knowing what you know now. Fabulous and cute read. "

" A must read for any Austen fan! "

" Frivolous, feminine, and just amusing for any Austen-loving gal. It was like watching a clean and clever chick flick in my head. "

" a fun read and an intriguing concept. "

" Great fast and fun book! "

" It was a fun easy read. I enjoyed the story line a lot. "

" This was a fun read--not Shannon Hale's finest, but still good and quite funny. "

" Great sunday afternoon read. Light romance, bit of comedy, not too much drama, a bit of fun. I liked the heroine - she wore her issues well and redeemed herself. "

" Very nice and light reading. I loved the parts about her ex boyfriends! "

" Would love to be in Austenland! Great story. "

" A cute book- not exactly a page-turner, though. "

" So so so cute. Easy read. "

" Really enjoyed this book, it felt like an Austen romance, with a very funny modern twist. I could not wait to find out what happened so i read it through in two sittings, will be buying this one for my collection. "

" This was a fun little romp through fantasy, fiction and reality. If you love Pride and Prejudice, give this a read. "

" The ending really made a mediocre experience into a downright funny book! I think I understood the premise best at the end. "

" As a huge Jane Austen fan, what girl wouldn't want to travel to live in the life she once did and look for a chance to meet Mr. Darcy? This was a really good read. Very cute. "

" I wish good reads had half stars. Charming, easy read. I'd give it 3.5. Finished it quickly. "

" Cute book - looking forward to the movie, I think they could make it quite funny :) "

" If you love Jane Austen novels, you should definitely read this! I was laughing throughout the entire novel... Definitely a great beach read! "

" A few twists and turns but always good and clean. Thanks to all authors out there that can write a good clean love story. "

" If you take this book for what it is - a fun chick-lit read, especially for those who love Mr. Darcy (as played by Colin Firth...sigh...), you'll have a great time! "

" Again Shannon Hale has done a great job writing this one. I couldn't put it down and loved following along. I agree that I could relate to the character so well. It was GREAT! "

" I'm actually surprised that I liked this, but I did. hmmmm. "

" Yuck! Almost embarassed to have read it at all.. "

" It was amusing. How many girls haven't had a bunch of duds for boyfriends and wouldn't like to meet a Mr. Darcy? It had a couple of surprises that kept me interested as well. I think I like Shannon Hale's Goose Girl series more, but it this was a fun, light read. "

" Pretty much the most amazing Jane Austen themed book ever. I read it in one day thats how much i loved it. I highly recommend to anyone who loves romance and has read jane austen's novels before. "

" I am embarrassed to admit that I finished this book. But it was Shannon Hale, after all, so it was bound to get better, right? WRONG! This book was awful. I adore Ms. Hale's fairy tales but this was cheap and poorly written and I cannot say strongly enough how disappointed I was in this book. "

" This was good but it was weird "

" This is my go-to book when I need a fun read. I read it several times a year. "
