Why read it?
1 author picked Jane of Austin as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This modern retelling of Sense and Sensibility charms with its tea shop setting, complicated sisterly relationships, and seamless prose.
But the real appeal to this book is the obvious love and expertise with which Lodge describes food, tea, and all their accoutrements. The delicious recipes at the end of each chapter certainly don’t hurt either.

From Carla's list on that will make you rush to the kitchen.
