Following Jane Austen Ruined My Life and
Mr. Darcy Broke My Heart, Beth Pattillo returns
with her new novel. Inspired by Sense and
Sensibility, The Dashwood Sisters Tell All
follows two modern-day sisters as they set out on a walking
tour of Jane Austen's England and uncover what might
actually be Jane's long-lost diary. Ellen and Mimi
Dodge have never been close, but their mother's dying wish
sends them on a walking tour of Hampshire, England, that
follows in the footsteps of Jane Austen. Their mother also
left them something else: a diary that belonged to Jane's
sister Cassandra. These pages shed light on the secrets that
nearly tore the Austen sisters apart and inspired one of the
greatest love stories of all time. They also bring Jane to
life in a way that no one has ever seen before: through the
eyes of her sister. As the Dodge sisters embark on their
walking tour, they too are drawn together in ways they never
expected. They also discover that Cassandra's diary holds
secrets, and someone doesn't want Ellen and Mimi to discover
the truth. As they stumble on their way toward love, the
women learn how Jane and Cassandra Austen inspired the
original Marianne and Elinor Dashwood and come to realize
that despite their very different personalities, they are a
vital part of each other's happy endings.

Re: Dashwood Sisters Tell All
These books sound wonderful - and I would love to be a winner. But even if I don't win, I plan to get the books to read. Best of luck with them. Nancy (Nancy Reynolds 11:01am February 14, 2012)
