The Cad, the Couch, and the Cut Direct: A Pride and Prejudice Variation by Jessie Lewis
Did not finish book. Stopped at 39%.
I think I'll just DNF this, 77 pages in, 40%. 9 of the 20 chapters. I am more picky with my "read" books, as my "eye time" is so limited. This was short, and I figured I'd slip a P&P variation in (I've read a LOT of them) even though I didn't care for the cartoonish cover.
3rd person, we get into the head of several characters (Darcy, Lizzy, Fitzwilliam, Georgiana, Kitty - who gets a little more story time than in other variations). Set historically, different direction for Jane (she married someone else after Bingley left).
Honestly - I just didn't get the whole art exhibition. It was so central to this story, yet I'd never seen/read anything like that before. I didn't really get "the cut" and Lady Tuppence and Lord Rutherford, it all felt so forced and unnatural.
... just not for me I guess ...
