Críticas:

"The world is overrun with manuals positively chock full of garbage advice about love and life. You could do much, much worse than a spot of guidance from Jane Austen."
--Jezebel

"What are we to learn from Austen's brand of feminism? Nothing more or less than this: that feminist ideas mean very very little in the abstract, for they still require a strategy to make them work in the world... Jane Austen needed to be a feminist in action just to be a feminist in print. We are quite free to be feminists in print, but we must follow her activist example if we are ever to be feminists in fact."
--Huffington Post

"This cute, feminist dating guide is sweet and fun, and for any lit-lover with a sense of humor and an active Tinder account, this is a cute gift to add to the pile."
--Bustle, Gifts for Book Lovers

"[A] witty, brief new guide... Certainly, there is infinite wisdom to be culled from Austen."
--Flavorwire

"Murphy compiles all of the attributes readers love in Austen's heroines into one helpful guide for navigating the dating world... For women everywhere who long for a Jane Austen romance, The Jane Austen Rules shares a formula for a love story."
--Deseret News

"Ms. Murphy has done an excellent job of blending light-hearted charm with reflections on the serious business of love and life."
--AustenProse

"A new book that tears apart the myths created by toxic dating guides...Couldn't agree more."
--Evening Standard's Londoners Diary (UK)

"The key to dating in today's day and age can be summed up with one essential question: What would Jane Austen do?...Sweet and to the point, this volume makes for an enjoyable and useful read."
--Publishers Weekly

"A delightful mashup of Jane Austen and The Rules, this modern guide to romance is pure stout-hearted charm."
--Amy Dickinson, advice columnist "Ask Amy" and NPR contributor

Reseña del editor:

What´s a strong, independent-minded woman supposed to do in a world of insipid dating guides? Sinéad Murphy responds by asking: Who has more time-tested secrets than Jane Austen, whose novels continue to captivate us almost two hundred years later?
