Six Californians start a club to discuss the works of Jane Austen. As they delve into Austen's literature, the club members find themselves dealing with life experiences that parallel the themes of the books they are reading.
A dog funeral is held at the beginning, but no dog deaths are actually seen. As an animal lover who is very triggered by animals being hurt or dying, this was 0% upsetting.
