“Three cheers for this well-written and rollicking revision of history full of timely mannerisms and bold adventure.
“Gleefully anachronistic comedy.” - Kirkus Reviews ★ “An uproarious historical fantasy that’s not to be missed.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review) An utter delight.” - Booklist (starred review) This fantasy-adventure politely tips its hat to history before joyfully punting it out of the way. PRAISE FOR MY LADY JANE: ★ “Wacky, irreverent, and just plain fun. A fun, supernatural mashup of different literary novels that shines on its own merit.” - Kirkus Reviews Humorously blends fact with fiction and offers a gentler, more hopeful outcome for Charlotte, her siblings, and her heroine.” - School Library Journal (starred review) ★ “A madcap story of ghosts, possession, revenge, and murder. Marvelously self-aware and almost too clever for its own good.” - Booklist (starred review) ★ “A delightfully deadpan deconstruction of a Gothic novel, with a ghost almost no one can see providing the commentary. The authors’ affection for their source material is abundantly clear in this clever, romantic farce.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Full of wry humor and laugh-out-loud commentary.
