A Modern Day Persuasion by Kaitlin Saunders





     Okay, I’m a huge Jane Austen fan and I read many Jane Austen variations and some sequels. Pride and Prejudice is my favorite! I love P&P what ifs and variations. Persuasion is my second favorite story of Jane’s. 
   A Modern Day Persuasion follows the original story Persuasion pretty much exactly.  Ms. Saunders did a wonderful job adapting it to the modern day. She worked out all the details so it would make sense in today’s world. I loved that in this version you know what Rick (Captain Wentworth) is thinking.  The letter Rick leaves for Anne toward the end is very romantic. 
This is a clean romance.

  2. I hear over and over again that there aren't enough Persuasion re-imaginings, so this is great. It fills the hole.

  3. No, there are not many, certainly not as many as P&P.

  4. I hope you realize I am now going through every post to see what books you recommend, if I've read any, and might comment here and there. Is it creepy? Perhaps. But I have no shame.

  5. Jamie, I love it! Lol! Although, this is my first one (obviously) and I was just goofing around. I really had no intention of doing this regularly but I quickly got hooked! I hope you find some good books, there are so many out there! BTW, I love your comments!
