As we know many of our Reading Addicts are great Jane Austen fans, we could not wait to share some great news with you! The British historian, and BBC history presenter, Lucy Worsley, has written a brand new book all about the life of Austen, and all the places she lived and visited. For a woman of her time Austen was very well-travelled, as Lucy explains in this video she made for the UK book shop, Waterstones.
The book is out on the 18th of May in the UK, and the 11th of July in the US.
Check out below where to pre-order Lucy’s new book, and some of the others she has to offer!
