The Next Great Jane
The Next Great Jane | K. L. Going
4 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
From award-winning author K. L. Going comes a happily-ever-after story of a girl who discovers the true secret to all good writing--through an unlikely friendship, some well-intentioned matchmaking, and little bit of science. Jane Brannen wants nothing more than to become a famous author like Jane Austen--she just needs to figure out the key to literary success! Her chance to uncover the secret arrives when bestselling author J. E. Fairfax visits her tiny town of Whickett Harbor. Unfortunately, a hurricane rolls in and Jane gets stuck with the author's snobbish son, Devon, instead. But when the skies clear, Jane realizes the wind has blown in something worse than annoying boys: Her mother, Susan, and Susan's new fianc, Erik, have flown all the way from Hollywood to file for custody and bring Jane back to California. Now she needs to find a mate for her marine biologist father and figure out what's truly important about Whickett Harbor, so she can prove to her mother that this is where she's meant to stay.

#StoryGraph: fiction contemporary middle-grade young adult lighthearted fast-paced
240 pages | first published 2020

Seventh grader, Jane Brannen, wants nothing more than to become a famous author like Jane Austen — she just needs to figure out the key to literary success!

This was a cute, little middle-grade story that I would recommend to any young reader.

#middlegrademarch starts on Monday! I have a whole stack of kid lit I‘m planning to read. But I‘m going to start with The Next Great Jane since Katie Proctor and I are doing a readalong! If you want to join us, we‘re going to be reading this fun book together next week, and chatting about it in an Instagram group.

I can‘t wait; it looks so cute! #greatjanereadalong

This middle grade story was really sweet. What‘s not to like with a smart girl who wants to be an author, a hurricane, a new family in town from Wales, an actress mom, geeky scientist dad, some family tension and a love for coastal Maine! My favorite place! I thought this was really sweet!
