Aside from that, I found big holes in the timing of the plot and such obviously contrived devises that it just didn't work for me. It also drug on for a long time before it even seemed to have a plot. Reading this book for me was a waste of time. ( ) While this novel contains moments of humor and excitement, I found it to be a tad dry. There was too much going on, too many characters, and not enough of Darcy and Elizabeth and Pemberly for that matter. What's the name of the book again? I grew weary of Wickham and his conquests, his bastard children and his dastardly deeds. I didn't care, frankly, to read any of it, but I had to for fear of losing some of the plot. I resented every moment of it, and found out later that I could have skipped half of Wickham's story and come to a more pleasurable conclusion. It's not a bad book. Darcy and Elizabeth are still adorable together, they still like it sexy, and now they have children. Well. How utterly domestic. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen is my favorite book after the Harry Potter series, and I was very excited the day that I found this book in the bookstore and decided to buy it instead of a american girl guidebook. I have to say, I like this book, and am also very disappointed with it. It may be written in a Jane Austen writing style, and I compliment the author on being able to, but it just doesn't carry the essence that Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice does. I am glad that the story of the Bennet sisters (Chronological order:Jane, Elizabeth, Lydia, Kitty, Mary) is continued on. I did like the plot-it was amazingly well written, but I still don't agree with this sequel. If you are a great fan of Pride and Prejudice, this is for you, but it is not one of my favorites. Abysmal. There are so many strange moments in this book that I found myself repeatedly thinking "Oh come on... that's just ridiculous!" Berdoll's attempt to make Darcy & Elizabeth a racy couple pretty much crashes and burns in this sequel (where it was only moderately successful in the first). There are so many useless new characters introduced that it becomes increasingly difficult to remember who is who and how they relate to the story at all. I slogged through til the end, simply because I try to always finish a book, but, frankly, I regret the time spent. I am a completist, which is why I started this book at all, but I will NOT be reading any forthcoming books that continue this particular rendition of Pride and Prejudice. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
