(Novel)
NEILL says:
I must confess, I am only two-thirds of the way through this book. Ordinarily I would of course always wait until completing a novel before reviewing it, in order to be able to form a full, complete and balanced opinion, but frankly I have something to say that will not wait.
Jane Austen rocks fucking hard. Seriously, Jane Austen rocks UNBELIEVABLY fucking hard. I can’t remember the last time I was so obsessively gripped with a story, let alone one that revolves around two 18th-century girls of good breeding and refinement and their respective attempts to make a good marriage. As we speak, Willoughby’s just turned back up – that godless fuckbastard, Willoughby! – and I’m finding it considerably difficult to cope with the tension until I find out what the black-hearted ill-born cock-smoker could possibly be after now. After what he did to Marianne! Not to mention the unfortunate young lady in Colonel Barton’s care, Eliza. MotherFUCKER!
I’m considering faking sickness so I can get away from work this afternoon and finish the bastard.
Jesus Christ. Jane Austen. Who knew?

Sir, I am all astonishment! It pains me greatly that you are now Firth-fancier material. By all means delight in vexing your readers; but sir, continue these Austen antics at your folly!
