What do You think about The Marrying Game (2004)?
Got absolutely glowing reviews on Amazon from both customers and published authors in the genre. As one reviewer said, "Saunders has Jane Austen's psychological insight and attention to detail, Louisa May Alcott's understanding of family dynamics, and Elinor Lipman's zaniness and saucy irreverence. Yet, Saunders is not just a pale imitation of other novelists. She has her own original voice, and "The Marrying Game" is a wonderful comedy of manners that has a great deal to say about life and love." How can I resist??? I see a few GoodReads reviewers were less than impressed. So far, I'm middle-of-the-road on this one. It entertained me enough on a cross-country flight, but failed to hold my attention once I got home.
