I wasn't able to call in last month when she had Thrity Umrigar (author of _The Space Between Us_) on, but I did listen to the interview online and learned more about her own life. I'm inspired to re-read some Jane Austen this summer (any author who has such a huge fan base, including the Jane Austen Society of North America, is worth picking up again!) bookroomreviews – the interviews on BCG are great, aren’t they?

I'm not a sci-fi/fantasy fan; it wasn't that kind of time travel ... Courtney simply woke up one morning in 1813 instead of 2000-something (no "way back machine :) ) Have you taken a look at the janeaustenaddict website, or the author interview on bookclubgirl? I'm so impressed by the amount of research Laurie Viera Rigler did - not just the usual reading and site visits, but also learning how to dance properly and get in period dress for a Regency ball. I think you'll enjoy it for what it is - a light-hearted look at incredible circumstances (accompanied by a herione with a quick dry wit!) kegsoccer – yes, do give it a try!
