My first source is the Reading Experience Database (RED), which provides scholars and others with accurate documentation of readers of specific authors and their works. A second source I will use is Deidre Lynch's book, Janeites: Austen's Disciples and Devotees. I will focus my analysis on chapters 3 and 4 which include “Sense by the Numbers: Austen's Work as a Regency Popular Fiction” by Barbara M. Benedict, and the last of the chapters which focuses on “Decadent Austen Entails: Forster, James, Firbank and “Queer Taste” of Sanditon” by Clara Tuite. A third source is Katie Halsey's book Jane Austen and Her Readers, 1786-1945. This text is an examination of the interactions readers had with Austen's writer.
