Book Review: Austenland by Shannon Hale

I received this book as a Christmas gift. I finished it a couple of nights ago. This book is really funny starting with the dedication: "For Colin Firth You're a really great guy, but I'm married, so I think we should just be friends." The humor continues throughout the book. The main character, appropriately named Jane, compares all men to Mr Darcy and has been disappointed each time. Jane is given an opportunity to live in the Jane Austen era for 3 weeks. This book is very funny, an easy read and keeps you interested to the end.
