Publisher's summary

Hate is a strong word.

Depending on the company, loathe is a good substitute. Abhor might be a little fancy, but it gets the job done. But the word that really sums up how I feel about Liam Darcy is, without question, hate.

He doesn't seem to think much of me either. The second he lays his fault-seeking eyes on me, he sets out to oppose me. Everything about him is imposing, as if he consumes the nearby air to power the rise and fall of his broad chest, and it's clear he resents my presence on his advertising team. Every idea I have is shot down. Every olive branch I offer is set on fire by nothing more than the blistering coals he calls eyes.

In return, I light him up with my words. It's not as if he can dismiss me, since I work for his client, Wasted Words. Instead, he's forced to tolerate me, which seems the closest we'll ever be to friends. Fine by me. I can be civil and still hate Liam Darcy.

But if there's more to him than his exterior shows, I won't be able to hate him at all.

I might stumble over that line between love and hate and fall right into his arms.

Great narration

The narration was fantastic. The story was not so bad, but I just felt more could've been done.

Worth the credit.

Cute story

If you like Pride & Prejudice, you’ll likely enjoy this sweet retelling. Aiden Snow is a fantastic narrator, though I wish his counterpart had more emotion in her reading. I wish Aiden had read the entire book!

It was ok

The story was ok. The narrator, not so much. Other than the last names there were only a few scenes that made me think of P&P.

Loved this modern Jane Austen reboot

As the title implies, Pride and Papercuts is a modern retelling of the Jane Austen classic, Pride and Prejudice. I loved the modern twist and the quirky characters that Staci Hart created. Mia Madison and Aiden Snow did a great job narrating, and this light-hearted romance really hit the spot. It was a joy to listen to.

Awkward reading

I think this book is an okay, if flowery, retelling of P&P, but the female reader has an odd cadence and stresses at unnatural points in the telling. It comes off less as a narration by the character and more like a student who has been asked to read to the class aloud from the textbook.

Entertaining but cringe…

Guy narrator has an unnerving voice, plus de dialogue is pretty cringy and possessive.

The story is pretty predictable from the start, but side characters are interesting.

Just meh..
