Juliette Shapiro is not Jane Austen, and I think Austen fans will be able to tell precisely at which point the original work ends. To me the "completion" felt clunky, focused on side characters and new characters without actual character development.

At the same time, I now want to read all of the varieties of Sanditon, even though I think I may not like them, either. I might just revisit some Austen favorites.
