This was a Goodreads First Reads won book.

The writing style was engaging but I personally was a bit bored by the constant declarations of love between the main characters and their worry one or the other did not love them. Darcy and Elizabeth are engaged but spend way too much time talking and thinking about it. I found it a bit hard to stomach that Mr. Darcy would have discussions about his love for Elizabeth with everyone he encountered. He had to have had better things to do and is male...men do not have deep, "I SO LOVE HER" discussions with other men all the time.

I loved Miss Bingley being a total witch about the engagement and Mr Collins sticking his nose into matters. Those parts of the story were the best. They were bang on in character and made me smile. The rest of the book? A bit yawn inspiring unless constant, sugary, love talk is your thing. It is not really mine so it is just personal taste.

Solid 3 star book in my opinion due to the story not thrilling my bones but probably thrilling other readers.
