Another great Abigail Reynolds book!

Abigail Reynolds and narrator Elizabeth Klett make a great team, and this book is no exception. Reynolds imagines different versions of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, and Klett is the perfect narrator to bring her characters to life. She does men and women equally well, and her British accent is impeccable.

Lovely reread

Many years since I read it last. Still as good as when I read it the first time. Love Abigail Reynolds. Great narrating as well. Great Jaff.

After Mr. Bennet dies…

I always enjoy an Abigail Reynolds variation. There are some poignant moments, such as when Darcy expresses himself in London, and then later near a graveyard in Meryton. The latter touched my heart. I enjoyed the character of Darcy’s Aunt Augusta.

Without spoilers, separate from his usual abandonment of Jane backstory, Bingley does one act of naughtiness in this story, but his motives are not bad. In fact, his and Jane’s part of the book made me tear up a couple of times. Having also read this before, this is one of those books where I find I enjoyed it even more with the audiobook version. Elizabeth Klett is an excellent narrator. I never have to listen to a sample of her before I purchase, as I know I will be happy with her performance.

Kisses only

descriptions misleading but the stories enjoyable

spoiler alert: the description is a little misleading but the stories enjoyable. Elizabeth misunderstands Darcy's offer

A book buyer's hesitation

I do not own this book. My review is only of the sample. I wonder if this book is simple too repetitious of other books that I've read; and, therefore, I have hesitation about buying this book. Dr. R Shechter
