I personally would have liked less discussion of the actual novels and more discussion of her life and the lives of the others in the group and other in the author's life. I happened to read The Jane Austen Book Club right after this one and that author did a wonderful job of making the novels discussed just a vehicle for delving more into the lives of the characters. Of course the two books have little to do with each other, but I thought it was worth a mention. This book completely disappointed me too.
