1 1/2 stars. VERY disappointing.
I suppose it was my own fault for not reading the reviews first.
Written in a Jane Austen-esque style, this book was completely UN Austen as they get.
Elizabeth Bennet turned into a complete Nymphomaniac!
Although she never ran out of euphamisms for sex. I was amazed at how many descriptions she came up with for the act.
It was VERY hard to read about Mr darcy's "Well endowed member" . This is MR DARCY! You can't write stuff liket hat about him!! AHHHH.

It was nice to see how another person imagined the outcomes of the various characters we know and love(and loathe) from the Original Pride and Prejudice. mr Collins, charlotte, Lydia and George Wickham, Jane and mr Bingley, the Bennets, Georgiana, Lady Catherine.
The ONLY reason i am giving it the extra half star was to see the "just desserts" meted out. I loved the outcome of some of the characters.

But honestly this book wasnt even a guilty pleasure or a beach book(you know the ones you are embarassed to admit you have read but secretly like)

read at your own risk. I felt like I spent the entire time rolling my eyes and thinking "here we go again"
