My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love getting to read about Sparky’s different adventures and the author does a great job of making each one feel fresh and original. This time she is stowed away on a cruise ship, she thought was headed for the South Seas, but it turns out to be filled with silent movie stars! She is mistaken for someone else and forced to be the lead in the all-girls chorus. As always, Sparky somehow manages to get involved with a mystery surrounding her mistaken identity as well as a passenger going overboard. The author continues to write vivid tales that really make you feel like you are back in the 1930’s and experiencing that Sparky is. The story continues to have well written characters that are easy to imagine and connect with. Another well written and researched cozy mystery from the author in a series you will want to keep reading.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book continues with Sparky trying to run away from her problems. This time she attempts to board a cruise ship. She overhears much gossip about one particular music director that everyone seems to detest.

This is written in the depression era and once again Barden’s descriptions are marvelous. This book has comical aspects to it as well and you’ll want to keep reading to see what happens next!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having read and enjoyed the previous books in this series of historical cozy mysteries, I was looking forward to this latest instalment. I was excited to be back with the extremely likeable eleven year old amateur sleuth Sparky. Once again the Depression era of the 1930’s was brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative, and added historical details. Our heroine Sparky has stowed away on an ocean liner and is out at sea. When she is discovered she becomes involved in a dangerous case of mistaken identity. Meanwhile, the other passengers appear to be ex-silent movie actors heading off to revive their careers in a mysterious film project. Sparky is missing both her guardian Tootsie and even her ex-boss Bookie, and wonders if she will ever see them again. Sparky must investigate when a passenger tumbles overboard under strange circumstances, and the other passengers become suspicious of her. This humorous mystery adventure once again kept me hooked throughout. I love Sparky as the main character and hope she will be back with a new adventure soon!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The South Seas Shenanigans is the fourth book in 1930’s Sparky of Bunker Hill Mystery series. This fun historical cozy mystery sees our amateur sleuth Sparky embroiled in another adventure.
I’ve said it before with the other books in this series but will say it again, Rosalind’s descriptive narrative paints a vivid picture of the life and times and makes it easy for us as readers to see come to life.
Sparky has had many adventures that have always led to mischief, mayhem and murder and this time it is no different except she has decided to stow away on a ship and her friends are nowhere in sight. When Sparky is discovered, she comes face to face with a group of disgruntled ex-silent movie actors anyone of which could be a killer.
Let the fun begin.

3.5 Stars

 

The South Seas Shenanigans is the fourth book in the Sparky of Bunker Hill Mystery series by Rosalind Barden. I have been enjoying this cute historical cozy mystery series which is set in the 1930’s and follows Sparky, the spunky, street smart, precocious tween (11 year-old) FMC on her mystery solving adventures.
Sparky has had some interesting adventures/cases over the course of the series, and this one sees her running away- well actually stowing-away on a cruise ship that sails her right into a troublesome mystery- with a case of mistaken identity, where a whole lot of trouble is about to rain down on Sparky if she can’t uncover the truth quick-smart.
Again, as with the rest of the series, the story contains all the historical detailing, language, sights, and societal norms that you would expect from that era- it is richly detailed, and the descriptions are quite ‘visual’, adding an extra element of interest to the story/series. The characters are many and varied- but all are quirky and quite ‘colourful’ individuals. The author definitely did a great job of bringing her characters and story to life.
Another great addition to this fun series.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Rosalind Barden!

I love these mysteries. This time Sparky is on the wrong ship. I found there is lots of drama, mystery and plenty of adventure. Sparky somehow always finds trouble. There’s a great flow to story. I had such a good time figuring out who did it. The characters, as always, are unique personlities that due to the time period of the story, are a pleasure to find in the story. I loved this story.

This mystery continues the adventures of Sparky, our unconventional protagonist, who finds herself amidst a tangled web of intrigue aboard a cruise ship filled with former Hollywood legends.

From the very first page, Barden skillfully immerses us in the vibrant atmosphere of the era—complete with the unmistakable glamour of Hollywood’s golden age and the palpable tension of a murder mystery. Sparky’s voice is refreshingly authentic for her age, capturing the wit and resourcefulness of an eleven-year-old who has had to fend for herself in a tough world. The premise of a stowaway escaping the confines of school sets the stage for a lively narrative filled with both humor and suspense, and it was a quick but enjoyable read.

Miss Georgiana Darcy’s Quest For Love: A Pride And Prejudice Variation Novelette by T. L. Clark – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Miss Georgiana Darcy is a young woman of very quiet temperament who is besotted with her family, especially her nieces and nephews and seeing them all so happily married and settled with children has given her the same dream and now she is ready to ask for it.

Once the subject is broached with her brother, a house party is arranged where family, friends and possible suitors are invited to make merry with the debutante and whittle down the prospective young men, however there is one thing which Miss Darcy is anxious of.

When the choices are narrowed down, will Miss Georgiana be able to find the courage to accept someone after what befell her at the hands of the dastardly Mr Wickham, or will she remain the wallflower she has become because of it? This is a charming and sweet historical romance of hopes, dreams and emotions with a little gently steamy content at the end for those who wish to indulge in the spicier aspects of life.

This wasn’t what I normally read but I’m always up for switching things up every once in a while. I was pleasantly pleased. It’s been a very long time since I’ve read Pride and Prejudice, but this was a very nice spin off. It’s a very quick and easy read and seems perfect for an afternoon in the sun!

I am a huge fan of Pride and Prejudice, and I love reading variation books, especially when they follow along with the original storyline. In this book, we get to follow Miss Georgiana as she seeks to find a potential mate so she may start her own family. What a wonderful short read this was. If you are a fan of the original characters then you will want to read this book, because we get to read about how many of the past characters are doing and learn of their fates. T. L. Clark did a great job matching the writing style and being true to the period from the setting to the speaking patterns of the character. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a short and sweet romance.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The name “Georgiana Darcy” was enough for me to pick this book, it is a spin off sequel of the iconic classic, Pride and Prejudice. It is always a pleasure to read any variation of the classic. This book, however is a very short one, with just 4 chapters. It opens up directly into the P&P setting, happily married Darcy and Elizabeth , the shy and reserved Georgiana, who is still not brave enough to step into the society after her setback with Mr Wickham. She asks Elizabeth to help, and what can attract suitors better than a grand ball ! Will Georgina find her match amongst the suitors?
I loved this book, I only hoped that it could have been a little longer. As the setting builds up, the book ends and the reader is left craving for more.
But I will not let the length of the book obstruct the sheer joy of going back to the P&P era. It was unexpected for me and I loved every bit of it.

I have to say I am not usually a short story reader or a huge fan of Historical romances but this talented author with her creative storylines and wonderful writing may just have changed my mind.
I guess you would call this a spin off of Pride and Prejudice as it features one of its characters Miss Georgiana Darcy. She was completely new to me though as I haven’t actually read Pride and Prejudice. I truly was drawn into her story and my heart was so invested! read this book today! you won’t regret it.

I’m more of a Bronte girl than a Jane Austen fan, and nor is Pride and Prejudice my favourite Austen novel. But you can’t deny that Pride and Prejudice was revolutionary and there’s a reason it remains so beloved today. I think it’s a really interesting perspective to consider Georgiana’s situation at the end of Pride and Prejudice because it offers a different woman’s story after she is compromised by Mr Wickham. Obviously this means that it would be better to read this short story after reading Pride and Prejudice for it to make sense, and I do think it could have been fleshed out more. I did appreciate that Austen’s language is retained because I think that is part of the charm of reading Austen in the 21st century.

This is a very short historical romance from the Love Through The Ages Series . This is a beautifully written romance. The author does a great job of bringing that time period to life.
The authors writing style and descriptions really bring to life the characters she is portraying and I like how the author covers issues such as a young woman being tricked before and the possibility of a ruined reputation and shows the reader exactly how the bad the consequences could be for a woman in that position.
I love Georgiana’s character. She had been burnt and scared to fall for another love again but it didn’t stop her from following her heart.

As I said this is a short read which meant I read it in one sitting. It is also a stand alone so you don’t need to read other books first to follow this story, however if you enjoy historical romances then I recommend reading more by this author.

Can Miss Georgiana find a true love that will match that of her brother, Fitzwilliam Darcy and his beloved Elizabeth Bennett-Darcy? Georgiana, always known for her quiet beauty, has thus far avoided the anxiety producing matchmaking known in loftier circles as, “The Season”. At the ripe old age of 20, she has been happily engaged, not to a beau, but in assisting her guardians in raising their children. However, she is beginning to think it’s time … so she enlists the assistance of her well-connected brother, in sponsoring a dance to which he will invite potential suitors, and young ladies of similar un-betrothed circumstances. Will she find the man of her dreams? This delightful novelette, written in the style of Miss Austin, is engaging from page one, and answers two vital questions, “Why did she wait?”, and “To whom will she present the final rose?” Be sure not to miss the author’s spicey Epilogue!

Miss Georgiana Darcy’s Quest for Love by T.L. Clark is a good book for people who love old-fashioned romance, Slow Reads, and people who like the original story Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin. This book was a good short story, and it didn’t take that long to read. The book also has an extra that is for the people who love steamy romance, and it is optional to read it. If you are a fan of the Darcy family, then this book is for you. This book can also be read as a standalone novel, but I do recommend the original. I hope you guys enjoy this Short Story.

As a Jane Austen fan, I’ve read my fair share of inspired stories, many of which have been about our fair Georgiana Darcy. This one was at the top of my list of favorites. It was a short read but I greatly enjoyed it. The writing style made it seem as if it was written by Miss Austen herself, which can’t have been easy, since not many others have pulled it off. I don’t recall reading this particular author before, but I will definitely be reading more from her in the future, and if you are a fan of Jane Austen, this short and sweet read will not be a disappointment.

I am a huge fan of Jane Austen and the Pride and Prejudice story. This novelette did not disappoint me at all. It was fun to travel back to Pemberley and revisit the beloved characters. I always liked Georgiana’s character and wanted more of her story. It is fun to follow the shy, hesitant girl as she asks her brother’s help to find a suitable husband after her less than satisfactory experience with Mr. Wickham. It is a very quick read (56 pages) and is a nice, cozy break from reality. I recommend this book and this author!

This was a very good and quick read. The story is of Georgiana and meeting possible suitors and it is a look into thoughts one could have if ever in a similar situation of that era.

So interesting to read about the adventures these characters have as they get to all know one another and try to find a love match in the process.

The wording of the story and how people respond to one another are telling of the era and I found this to be a very lovely story. I enjoyed the Optional Epilogue at the end as well… very steamy and well written.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a fun continuation of one of the greatest books of all time. I always wished there was more to the Bennett family, to see how Lizzy’s other sisters faired as well as Georgiana. This book is a nice dream, I would also like to think the Darcys and Bingleys had many children together and were so happy. It was nice to see Georgiana interested in someone especially after her dealings with Mr. Wickham. The steamy scene at the end was a nice treat.

Miss Georgiana Darcy’s Quest for Love is a novelette that takes place following the events of Pride and Prejudice. I would say it will be more enjoyable and easier to follow for readers who have read or watched Pride and Prejudice and are already familiar with the characters and their backstories. It’s a charming romance that follows Georgiana’s and her family’s attempts to find her an appropriate suitor.

This is an enjoyable read for fans of Pride and Prejudice who want to imagine what the future could hold for Georgiana. We catch up with many familiar characters and meet new ones as the Darcys host a party to connect with local families.

For me, this is a four star read. It’s a fun, short book that I could see readers adding on to the end of their Pride and Prejudice reread/rewatch.

What a fascinating little tale. It’s a very quick read. Fashing after Pride and Prejudice, I imagine that some fans of Austen may enjoy this story. I found it most intriguing. Who doesn’t love a bit of drama and romance. I can’t tell you more or it would give away things. You’ll have to read it for yourself.
