This was an excellent modern day take on Pride and Prejudice told in ways I think would be really easy for a younger audience to dissect and understand. This would be a good introduction into the classic for young adult readers. Pride & Prejudice is one of my all time favourite novels and I loved being able to see the connections between this and the classic. Thanks to Harper Collins NZ for my gifted advance copy of this one.
I fell in love with all of the characters in this phenomenal novel by Lynda. Two teenagers going through hard times and how their friendships and support systems can help them through. While I loved the relationship between the two protagonists it was actually the side characters that made me really fall in love. Thank you again for another amazing novel Lynda!!
I really struggled to get into this one and almost gave up. I found Emma quite insufferable, mainly the need to say exactly what designer every item of her wardrobe was, but I did like Knightley. I so badly wanted to love this as Emma by Jane Austen is an all time favourite, but this really did not compare. While the book picked up and I'm glad I read this, it just didn't quite live up to my Jane Austen love.
