I was really looking forward to reading this and was supremely disappointed. If you love the idea of P&P don't expect any of it from this book other than the similarity of the names. It pretty much is a glorified bodice-ripper and I didn't care anything about the characters, primarily because there was very little character development. If you took out all the sex you'd probably be left with MAYBE 100 pages in a 338-page book. After Darcy and Elizabeth meet in the beginning of the book their contact together in the courtroom spans all of 5 pages and is mostly described passively, with no real dialogue. This is supposed to support how Darcy is falling for Elizabeth but without real conversation it's difficult to believe any of it.
