“Stilettos For Me, Please!” and a Side of “Pride and Prejudice”

You don’t have to read Pride and Prejudice before you pick up E.V. Hewitt’s debut novel Stilettos For Me, Please! (Barnes & Noble Press) but you might enjoy her sense of humor that much more as you carouse around London with Kate Seeley and her friends. Reminiscent of Carrie Bradshaw…

Book Club Guest Blog: “The Witch of Willow Hall”

It’s a daunting task writing about witches and ghosts and keeping an adult audience captivated with realism and empathy. So I had low expectations for Hester Fox's The Witch of Willow Hall (Graydon House) but found myself pleasantly surprised. The plot line was so enthralling, I couldn’t put the book down. It read…

The Best of Jane Austen on Her 246th Birthday

It’s Jane Austen’s birthday! Were Jane alive today, she would be turning a very venerable 246 years old and would deserve the greatest party of all time. (Meaning, of course, a grand ball and no appearance from any real-life iterations of Mr. Collins.) At this hypothetical dance of the ages,…
