[***The following rambling notes are for me. They may contain spoilers or no information at all.***]


Elizabeth was very annoying. I always find her frustrating with her Jane is perfect, the sweetest, the most beautiful, and every man must want her. Elizabeth gives absolutely no consideration to personal preference and sounds like her mother. In this JAFF, she’s offended when Darcy doesn’t fall at Jane’s feet, she offended when she thinks Darcy might not want Jane, but she’s thrilled when Jane rejects Darcy and probably brought shame on the family. The Caroline and Wickham storyline was really the only part I liked. 
Listened to the audiobook. Couldn’t stand the voices.

Low angst quick read, with prerequisite misunderstanding courtesy of Caroline Bingley and George Wickham.
ODC fall in love despite themselves, but circumstances and people keep them apart.

Old university friends Mr Bennet and the elder Mr Darcy thought it would be a good idea if the son married Bennet's elder daughter. On arranging a visit to Pemberley, Darcy is captivated by the younger sister, Elizabeth. To complicate matters the Bingleys and de Bourghs are also visiting.
An enjoyable story, which has Wickham in good favour with the elder Darcy.
