The writing is making me DNF. All show. No tell. And it seems like the author is in such a hurry to hit all the points from the cannon that there is no time spent on fleshing out the characters or trying to better adapt the plot to a modern time. Disappointing.
Loved the idea of this and obviously I'll read anything with Darcy in it. However, in this case, I was painfully disappointed.

This book was so awful. I wanted to like it, I really did. I started out hoping it would be light and funny like Prom and Prejudice and I was horribly disappointed. This book was poorly written, the same vocabulary words being used over and over to describe things. It only held my interest because I...
