About Julia
Hi everyone! This is Julia of
The Broke and the Bookish, formerly blogging on my own at
The Competitive Bibliomaniac.
I read mostly historical romance, but can often be found reviewing paranormal romance, young adult books (mostly distopian/fantasy), fantasy/sci-fi, classics,
and the occasional non-fiction book about languages.
Feel free to follow and reblog!

Just Finished Reactions: Austenland by Shannon Hale
There are a lot of things about this book that I think. I mean, it's about rich women trading tons of money for three weeks in Regency England.
And overall it was a cute light read, I guess. Nothing amazing, but I did get caught up in it a bit. I probably wouldn't have read it except for SB-TB Bookclub, so I am curious to see how others felt about it. Especially if they shared my ambivalence.
But one thing I will say, as a frequent airplane traveler, about the ending. It's not really spoilers-y at all, but I am going t shove it under a spoiler tag the cut anyway.
A full length review can be found at The Broke and the Bookish. Complete with pictures of various Mr Darcys.
If I was on an airplane in coach where strangers are practically seated on each others laps for a long distance flight, and any couple kissed the entire flight, I would probably throw up on them.
I mean...Close quarters PDA? Where people could hear your sucking sounds through their in flight movie?
