The Heiress: The Revelations of Anne de Bourgh by Molly Greeley
4.0
I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The Heiress: The Revelations of Anne de Bourgh was an interesting retelling to dive into. My love for Pride and Prejudice will continue to grow no matter what because of my love of Elizabeth and Darcy. So to go into more details about Anne's own life, well I was dying to figure out what was wrong with her and what was going to happen as well.
I loved absolutely everything about Anne. At first, I was a bit skeptical because of how "sick" she was. Mostly because it seemed like the medicine that her mother, maid, nurse, and doctor were all for was definitely hurting her more than helping. It also seemed rather odd that no one in her family would step up and say something. Eventually her cousin helped out but by then it kind of seemed lame.
Anne was a strong and likable character. She definitely grew throughout the book and fell in love. Of course she had to deal with a broken heart or two along the way but once she knew what she wanted - she went for it whole heartedly.
This book was completely delightful and I loved devouring each and every page. I will admit though that the ending was bittersweet for me.
