Everyone Needs To Read Jilly Cooper!!!,

This review is from: Harriet & Octavia (Paperback)
I have fallen in love with a new author... JILLY COOPER. She's amazing. I love her tone, characters, sense of romance, and wild bloody fun. He work is just fabulous. I find her refreshing and just plain fun. This work circles around the two stories of Emily and Bella. Each tales weaves a wild and fun room of love and charm. Her work is so full of humor and truth. She has been called teh "Jane Austen" of our time.. now, I think that is impossible, as Jane is the ultimate best, but's she pretty darm close. Get all of Jilly's books... she very talented.
