A review by ameserole
A Certain Appeal by Vanessa King

4.0

I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A Certain Appeal was such a fun Pride & Prejudice retelling. I might be a little bias here because I absolutely love that book and the movies. So I didn't really hesitate to jump into this wonderful book one bit. It also didn't take long for me to fall in love with the characters either. Someone might call it insta-book-love, I guess?

Liz and Will were basically amazing (in my eyes). Their chemistry was very easy to devour and I couldn't help myself when it came to their bantering. I definitely had a huge smile on my face and I kept thinking to the bantering in the original book. Oh man - I feel like I need to reread that book now.

I totally get the whole enemies to lovers vibes these two were steaming my way. It also didn't take long for their own feelings or emotions to develop for one another. I mean.. it would be quite hard not to since their friends like one another and they are constantly hanging around.

Oh Charles and Jane were equally adorable too. These two definitely helped the romance blossom between Liz and Will. They deserve a drink or two for all the hard work that they basically didn't do but in some weird way they did.

In the end, I definitely devoured this book and I can't wait for the next pride and prejudice retelling to come my way.
