I’m not sure whether I liked this book or not. I love “Pride and Prejudice” and thought it would be fun to read a book involving the exact same story, only told from Darcy’s perspective. But I just think this one could be SO much better than it is. The readers at Amazon.com just raved about this version, but I found it oddly lacking. Maybe it’s because Darcy hasn’t declared himself to Lizzy yet, which is just went the original really gets going. I’ve read that the second book in the trilogy is all fluff and doesn’t relate to the original tale at all, so I may skip to the third book – if I can find it. Supposedly it hasn’t been released, and yet a lot of Amazon readers have already reviewed it, which I find odd. Has it been released or not? Can’t tell.
In any case, this is not a book for purchase unless it’s in a used bookstore for half price. So save yourself some money if you can. Better yet – just read the original, which is brilliantly written.
