I loved this inclusive retelling of Pride and Prejudice! I think it’s great to have characters that so many different people can connect with<3 unfortunately, the writing style wasn’t for me and I found it hard to pick this book back up

Not as good as the other two books in the series. I just didn’t connect with the characters and the plot felt rushed and messy. Still enjoyed it enough to finish it.

I read this book because I LOVED Hooked. While this wasn’t as good as Hooked in my opinion, it was still a great read. I really loved the royalty setting to it.
