Query: Perfect Austenian style, but a bit short on suspense

While I highly commend Miss Aston for her uncanny ability to emulate Jane's language and style, making this modern book read just like one of the beloved classics, and earning the book the 4 stars I've given it, I'd rate the plotline and pacing somewhat lower (like just 3 stars, but averaged with the 5 for tone, there's your 4). The story is rather more predictable than I'd have liked, and while I realize that that's partly done as a nod to the original Pride & Prejudice, I think that more demanding audiences would like a bit more suspense or less predictability (hence the average rating of just 2.5 stars for the book, I imagine). Still, this is a good read and a good buy, particularly for fanatics of Jane's.
