I am very glad I am not a teenager in today's world. There are so many additional pressures and worries that I never had to think about.

In the book, after her parents have a scandalous divorce, Mclean chooses to live with father who is a restaurant consultant.

I have a secret to confess. I have never read a Jane Austen novel. I've meant to, but every time I have tried I've become distracted and put down the book. Each one I have tried to read seemed stuffy and bogged down with a lot of dialogue. Well, thanks to A Jane Austen Education by William Deresiewicz, I might have to pick up a book again.  Read more >
