Explore your favorite author’s favorite authors at the JASNA Hawai‘i Reading Group’s summer discussion on March 28.
We will discuss Rebecca Romney’s 2025 book Jane Austen’s Bookshelf: A Rare Book Collector’s Quest to Find the Women Writers Who Shaped a Legend.
The Washington Post calls the book “a meditation on reading and writing, on honesty and self-discovery—and on what books can teach us, if we let them.”
Listen to author Romeny’s interview on the JASNA Chat podcast.
The book is available to borrow from Hawai‘i State Library or purchase from Bookshop.Org ($19 paperback, $16 ebook), Jane Austen Books ($25); Barnes & Noble ($21 paperback, $16 ebook); or Amazon ($21 new, $16 used paperback or Kindle).
