As some of you may know I love reading books that have to do with Miss Austen's books. Pride and Prejudice mostly....

To get to the point in September two new books are coming out that are about P&P and I am so excited. I will tell you about them.

1. Darcys & the Bingleys: Pride and Prejudice Continues by Marsha Altman

Two of my favorite stories on fanfiction.net are being published into one book!! I don't know how many people read fanfics but these stories is well written and entertaining. On fanfiction it is by username : DJ Clawson and the fanfics are called A Bit of Advice and A Question of Consent.
Summary: Three days before their double wedding, Charles Bingley is desperate to have a word with his dear friend Fitzwilliam Darcy, seeking advice of a most delicate nature. Bingley is shocked when Darcy gives him a copy of the Kama Sutra, but it does tell him everything he needs to know...
Eventually, of course Jane finds the remarkable volume, and in the utmost secrecy shows it to her dear sister Elizabeth, who goes searching for a copy in the Pemberley library...
By turns hilarious and sweet, The Darcys and the Bingleys also presents an intriguing view of Miss Carloine Bingley, who has such good reasons for
being the way she is that the reader can't help but hold her in charity. Georgiana Darcy makes a most eligble match, and in spite of his abhorrence of being asked for advice, Darcy's friendship with Bingley is solid and full of fun.

2. The Matters at Manfield: Or, The Crawford Affair (Mr. and Mrs. Darcy Mysteries) by Carrie Bebris

This is the fourth book in the Mr. and Mrs. Darcy Mysteries. I couldn't be happier. I love this series and I would rate it 5/5 all the way.

Summary: Soon after the birth of their first child, Elizabeth and Darcy visit Mansfield Park, where they get caught up in intrigue involving mistaken identities and sudden disappearances.



Sorry for all the writing. gonk
I can't wait for next month!! If you love reading books that have to do with Jane Austen I suggest these!!

Oh my gosh! I totally read that fanfiction a long time ago. I had forgotten all about it until I read your description. I'll have to check it out again.
