Tries to be too many things at once, and doesn't fully succeed at any of them. A satire of Regency novels needs more subtlety than a mansion named Stabmort and a handsome himbo named Croaksworth. And the weird stuff, like youngest sister Mary being a werewolf, feels like an afterthought that is barely related to the main plot. YMMV if you are tickled by any book with amusing footnotes and gratuitous frogs.
