The Elopement by Gill HornbyMy rating: 1 of 5 stars
DNF at 35%.
I requested this book because I had seen adverts for the TV mini series Miss Austen which had intrigued me and the blurb looked interesting.
Sadly, I am 35% through the book and I can't decide if it is intended to be funny (because it isn't), or who is supposed to be the main character. Indeed, I have just read the blurb as I start to write this review and I have discovered that the FMC is still a thirteen year old child, so far most of the book has been from the POV of her stepmother.
Anyway, I'm over a third through the book, none of it resembles the blurb, and I don't like the writing tone so I am giving up.
I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.
