"Holds all the flavor of a juicy period novel yet with the addition of numerous, witty asides. Full of wry humor and laugh-out-loud commentary. The authors' affection for their source material is abundantly clear in this clever, romantic farce." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A delightfully deadpan deconstruction of a Gothic novel, with a ghost almost no one can see providing the commentary. Marvelously self-aware and almost too clever for its own good." -- Booklist (starred review) "A madcap story of ghosts, possession, revenge, and murder. Humorously blends fact with fiction and offers a gentler, more hopeful outcome for Charlotte, her siblings, and her heroine." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "Reader, it delighted.


A fun, supernatural mashup of different literary novels that shines on its own merit." -- Kirkus Reviews PRAISE FOR MY LADY JANE: "Wacky, irreverent, and just plain fun. This fantasy-adventure politely tips its hat to history before joyfully punting it out of the way. An utter delight." -- Booklist (starred review) "An uproarious historical fantasy that's not to be missed." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Gleefully anachronistic comedy." -- Kirkus Reviews "Three cheers for this well-written and rollicking revision of history full of timely mannerisms and bold adventure. Those who enjoy clever humor, colorful fantasy, and light romance will savor each page.


" -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) "The Tudors meets Monty Python. Prepare to laugh and gasp and clutch your pearls." -- Tahereh Mafi, New York Times bestselling author of the Shatter Me series "History, humor, and unexpected magic come together in this marvelous story." -- Jessica Day George, author of Silver in the Blood "Adventure, intrigue, humor, and romance abound. A great choice for those who enjoy lighthearted, alternative history adventures." -- School Library Journal.
