Thanks for the recs! I am an Austen fan, the first book in Jodi Taylor's St Mary's series is going for $0.99 on Amazon right now, and I haven't really read many supernatural mysteries but I consider magic a plus.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I loved Longbourne.
Rainbow Rowell's Landlines is fun.

Rainbow Rowell's Landlines is fun.
I really enjoyed Fangirl.
I second the Shades of Milk and Honey rec, too.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I somehow know nothing about recent literature. Now I want to read Longbourne!

I haven't read Longbourne but second all the other recs above!

Longbourne is excellent, but if you're looking for "light", I'd go with Shades before Longbourne.

I read Longbourn (no "e") for my upcoming book salon (classic literary fan fiction) and agree that it's very well done.

Well, I used up some gift cards and bought a bunch of ebooks last night. Thanks again.

I just got my daily BookBub ebook offer emails--and the first book in the list is one I edited for Deena's imprint, Drollerie Press! The Chocolatier's Wife, I'm so thrilled the author found another outlet for it!

Oh right! No 'e', it's been a while since I read the original.
