It's always hard to rate Anthologies because there's always some stories you like better than others.
Pride and Prejudice is tough to modernize because a woman is no longer going to starve in the hedgerows if she doesn't marry. When Darcy is the boss and Elizabeth is the employee it feels inappropriate through modern day lens.
Overall I enjoyed. But my favorites are always the Regency ones.
