Teen Talk

Maddie, age 15 loves Jane Austen books. However, when asked if she ever read historical fiction, she said “We read one for school and I didn’t really like it. It was kind of boring. I really like Jane Austen’s books though!” Perhaps the book she read was just not in her range of the type of book she likes. Perhaps if she was pointed in the direction of historical fiction books that had the regency feel of Jane Austen, she would be pleasantly surprised with historical fiction. There are many historical fiction books set in the regency era, one of which could be The Musician’s Daughter by Susanne Dunlap.
