Three or four short stories, all centered around aftermath of Mr. Bennet's death.

So-so

Emotional interesting intriguing loveable

I truly lAughed and/or cried throughout this book. In this book were three different variations, I truly enjoyed reading these. In all three Mr Bennet dies and the family loses their house. I was intrigued by how Mrs Bennet was portrayed, but totally agreed with it. Love how Charles lost out on Jane in one story. Highly recommended to all to read

2 Stars for effort... (I do not like to be too harsh in my rating and reviews, but this time there is no other way)

I finished but it was painful. The stories were cute and they could have been good. But they seemed to have been dictated as a text message "sent" without re-reading.

There is more to say, but I believe I have already spent as much time on this review as the author spent on writing those stories, therefore, that should be enough.

Lovely

Another absolutely interesting collection of variations inspired by Jane Austen’s classic novel Pride and Prejudice by Sharon Garrison. Enjoyed it.
