If you love Jane Austen and love Sci Fi, then this is a great book for you! This was such a wonderful read. I enjoyed it so much. Of course, the bones of the book is based on the novel Persuassion, but she added so much more to it. I thought it was so thought provoking and besides the innuendos of Benedict North's actions, I felt like this was the first YA novel that was actually appropriate for that age group. The letters between Elliot and Kai were my favorite part of the story. They were just too cute!
