Jane Austen knows romance. This gifty humour book distills her sharp wit and timeless wisdom on the ways of men and women into charming guidance for modern relationships.

Each spread includes a quote from a favourite Austen character and a quippy interpretation that reads between the lines. Learn how to dispense with the roguish Willoughbys, recognise the Mr. Knightlys, steer clear of the Caroline Binglys, and avoid the Mr. Collinses at all costs with The Jane Austen Romance Guide for Well-Bred Womenβ€”the perfect female-forward humour gift for book lovers and Austen fans alike.

Sample:
Quote: "It must have been his sisters' doing. They were certainly no friends to his acquaintance with me. . . ." -Jane Bennet, Pride and Prejudice

Advice: Don't let his catty sisters call the shots in your relationship. This is between you and him.
