“On the train to Bath, I opened my copy of Jane Austen’s letters and looked through the book, searching for any clues about Jack Smith.
Surely some inkling of her relationship with him remained, although I was beginning to suspect that Cassandra’s caretaking of her sister’s legacy had been far more thorough than anyone had dreamed. “

Jane Austen Ruined My Life by Beth Patillo
“He dragged a shredded tarp to the top floor of the house and climbed in the fiberglass garden tub sitting unplumbed in the master bedroom.
He made a nest and slipped into dreams.”
From: Jesus Swept by James Alexander Protzman
Those are great teasers. I’ve been curious about “Jane Austen Ruined My Life” – may have to put that one on my TBR list.
The Jane Austen book is so much fun. I started reading thing morning and I’m already half way through it. I would have read it straight through except that I had to go in to work. =p Definately pick it up, its a good read.
I want to read this one! Great teasers.
Cassandra did do a number on her sisters legacy!
What a great title for a book and wonderful teasers. Thanks for sharing ~ here is mine
I’m adding Jane Austen Ruined My life to my to-read list
You found one of my favorite scenes! What fun.
Though I generally steer clear of dreams in writing fiction, this excerpt foreshadows a truly surreal meeting between Gary Gray and Dog. It gives me chills even though I wrote it!
Thanks!
