Mr. Darcy, the Beast: a Pride and Prejudice variation (The Happily Ever Collection)
by
by
Pride and Prejudice/Beauty and the Beast
I do love this particular combination of classics and the story was quite compelling but I was not overly fond of the execution.
To some, Mr Darcy is the most important charcter, to me it is Elizabeth. While I can very well stomach this badass, portrait of Darcy, I didn't like this portrait of Elizabeth. She was brazenly forward and lacked her famous wit and eloquence. Her conduct was more in terms of what I would have expected from Lydia...
In addition, I thought the language and phrasing too modern.
The mystery surrounding the carriage accident and Georgiana's death held my attention and kept me turning the pages.
Worthwhile.
Rated: Mature
