What They're Saying

Critics Review

“I really love this book. Being able to read Jane’s handwriting so clearly, as well as the text next to it gave me goosebumps.”

“Jane Austen’s prayers includes things you may not know about Jane as she was brought up surrounded by clergymen as a Christian. I especially liked reading the prayers and how her relationship with God influenced her writing.”

“You rarely see large pictures of Jane’s writing, so I like how they feature in this book which is slightly larger so I can read her handwriting. I loved it!”

“I didn’t know the prayers even existed so I enjoyed reading this book and finding out about Jane’s family.”
