Offering temporary transport to a simple and peaceful place, women will love taking a moment to revel in the beauty and truth of a Scripture paired with excerpts from Northanger Abbey, Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, and Emma.

MY REVIEW

A Jane Austen Devotional

published by Thomas Nelson

available  January 10, 2012

A must have if you are a lover of Jane Austen and Jesus Christ.  This book is a wonderful blend of tidbits from Jane's books and Biblical passages.  The lessons put forth are related to Ms. Austen's characters with a perfect blending of her writings and those from the scriptures.  

I received this book as a NetGalley egalley, but I will purchase as soon as available, this is one I want to keep with me at all times.
