First (Wrong) Impressions por K. Ball
This book was amazing. It is very "modern", down to language and modern morals, but it feels true to the original characters while also being a great story in it's own right. I laugh a lot at books. I often want to just give characters a hug. But it's rare that they also make me cry, and this one did all three.
I have a confession to make: I consider myself a Jane Austen purist. Pride & Prejudice has been a long-time favorite of mine, so I'm almost always willing to try any new variations of the book that the literary world has to offer.
"First (Wrong) Impressions" isn't the best variation I've ever read. It covers a wide stream of issues: rape, pregnancy, poverty, drug use, sexual identity, LGBT references, etc. The use of F-bombs is too much for my comfort. There is quite a bit of drinking too, and some premarital sex.
I will admit that the tweeting and texting part was kinda cute. And it made the book feel that much more up-to-date with the times. But would I want to re-read this book again? Probably not. I'm a Jane Austen purist!… (más)
