This Week’s Fiction Book:
Jane
Bites
Back
by Michael Thomas Ford
Two
hundred
years
after
her
death,
Jane
Austen
is
still
surrounded
by
the
literature
she
loves—but
now
it's
because
she's
the
owner
of
Flyleaf
Books
in
a
sleepy
college
town
in
Upstate
New
York.
Every
day
she
watches
her
novels
fly
off
the
shelves—along
with
dozens
of
unauthorized
sequels,
spin-offs,
and
adaptations.
Jane
may
be
undead,
but
her
books
have
taken
on
a
life
of
their
own.
To
make
matters
worse,
the
manuscript
she
finished
just
before
being
turned
into
a
vampire
has
been
rejected
by
publishers—116
times.
Jane
longs
to
let
the
world
know
who
she
is,
but
when
a
sudden
twist
of
fate
thrusts
her
back
into
the
spotlight,
she
must
hide
her
real
identity—and
fend
off
a
dark
man
from
her
past
while
juggling
two
modern
suitors.
Will
the
inimitable
Jane
Austen
be
able
to
keep
her
cool
in
this
comedy
of
manners,
or
will
she
show
everyone
what
a
woman
with
a
sharp
wit
and
an
even
sharper
set
of
fangs
can
do?
