3.0

I can’t decide whether I liked this or not. It was fun I think, mostly the first half. But Mrs. Bennet was WAY too much and the way the book treated some issues... yikes.
The Chip and Jane romance was... okay. And Liz and Darcy had their moments but the part where “Darcy saves Lydia” just didn’t accomplished it like the original or other retellings.
Overall, I read it way faster that I thought I would and it was enjoyable most of the time
