Christina Morland spent the first two decades of her life with no knowledge whatsoever of Pride and Prejudice—or any Jane Austen novel, for that matter. She somehow overcame this childhood adversity and became a devoted fan of Ms. Austen's works. Morland has written three Pride and Prejudice variations and contributed two short stories to JAFF anthologies. She is currently working on a Sense and Sensibility sequel and hopes one day to write a Persuasion variation, as well as a fantasy novel that has (almost) nothing to do with Jane Austen. When not writing, Morland tries to keep up with her incredibly active daughter and maddeningly brilliant husband. She lives in a place not unlike Hogwarts (minus Harry, Dumbledore, magic, and Scotland), and likes to think of herself as an excellent walker. A note on how I review books: my goal is to find something to celebrate in whatever book I’ve chosen to review on Goodreads. This does not mean that I love all books equally or that I’m not cognizant of a book’s flaws. (I’m certainly aware of my own books’ flaws—or some of those flaws, at any rate!) I find it most useful, as an author, to ask not just, “Did I like this book?” but also, “What do I think was this author’s goal, and how did s/he set out to accomplish that goal?” A quick summary of a five-star rating for me: I found the book to be beautifully written; it bent or broke some "rule" within the genre, and did so well; and the book impacted me emotionally and intellectually. If you would like to discuss my reviews or any other book-related topic, feel free to contact me. Thanks!

Joana Starnes lives in the south of England with her family. She swapped several hats over the years – physician, lecturer, clinical data analyst – but feels most comfortable in a bonnet. She has been living in Georgian England for decades in her imagination, and plans to continue in that vein till she lays hands on a time machine. She loves to look for glimpses of Pemberley and Jane Austen’s world, and to write about Regency England and Mr Darcy falling in love with Elizabeth Bennet over and over and over again. She is the author of ten Austen-inspired novels and a contributor to the Quill Ink Anthologies. Joana’s novels are all available on Amazon in Kindle Unlimited and in paperback, and some have also been released in Audible. You can connect with Joana on: Goodreads ; Facebook ; Twitter ; Instagram ; Website and at Austen Variations or visit Joana’s Facebook page All Roads Lead to Pemberley for places and details that have inspired her novels.
