I really can't express how much I despised this book. As a huge Jane Austen fan, I've never wanted to read this book since I thought it wasn't fair that a writer took advantage of an another writer's work. I changed my mind a few weeks ago and I thought I could give it a try.

I've read many books inspired by Jane Austen works and I always enjoyed them because they were different and tried to give a different perspective and twist.This I couldn't stand it. Having read "Pride and Prejudice" so many times, I almost know it by heart and it really pained me to see that the author copied and pasted the original version of P&P and entered a few ridiculous sentences of his own. If this is what it takes to become an author, anybody can do it, because the only interesting parts are the one written by Jane Austen (as they remained exactly the same thing from book to book)

I strongly advise against reading this book, or at least you must read the real Pride and Prejudice first to see tha this one is just a copy
