Lies and Deceit Quotes in Austenland

Austenland was built to deceive. It's a modern-day estate meant to serve as a portal into the past. But, like the actors who occasionally break character, Pembrook Park can't always keep its act together.

This line, coming from Miss Charming's fifty-five-year-old mouth, has to be the biggest lie in the book. She has no problem role-playing with a straight face. Which we think is pretty impressive, because unless you're Demi Moore, no one's going to believe that fifty-year-old skin is, in fact, just a couple decades young.

Jane thinks she won't be able to get this role-playing bit down, but she's somehow able to say this about Miss Charming… who is bleached blonde and twenty years older than Jane.
