I'm feeling pretty ambivalent towards this one, and I think it's because there wasn't a whole lot of introspection on Elizabeth's part. We mostly read from Darcy's POV, which is fine, but I felt a lot of the side characters like Colonel Fitzwilliam and Jane were pushed aside when I would've really enjoyed getting to know them more in this variation. 

So while the story was definitely decent, kept me engaged throughout and was relatively quick to get through with respect to pacing and length, it didn't leave that much of a lasting impression upon me.
