À propos de cet audio

I absolutely love this podcast! I just started listening maybe 3 weeks ago and I adore just about every episode! The hosts are hilarious and cheerful! I don't have any friends who read Jane Austen so this podcast really gives me so much joy in being able to feel like I'm connecting with like minded people. I learn so much and laugh just as much! Highly recommend to any Austen fan!

LOVE!
