I almost DNF'd this on account that the first third was recapping the entirety of Pride and Prejudice, from Mary's perspective of course. The first third to a half of the book is also incredibly depressing. If you do not prepare yourself for more hopeful events in the later portions, it can seem like you will never escape the depressive overtones! Very heavily character driven. And, halfway onwards, a wonderful pleasure to read.
