Great until second half

I was really into this book during the first half, where the author should have concluded. At that point I would have given the book four or five stars. The second half was too long and bogged down in too many things going on and much of things irrelevant. There was just too much useless stuff which made the second half so boring. That is when I had to drop down to three stars. I did like it that the villains were justly punished. This author has a tendency to forgive horrible people. Thankfully she did not dish out forgiveness for the villains in this book. She shot them down with a vengeance - totally justified.

The virtual voice was better than than usual, but still needs improvement.

Elizabeth was insecure

Of course there should be some consciousness when you come from a poor family and your love is a high and rich member of society but one of the reasons I love P&P so much is that Elizabeth is head strong and seemingly confident. This story portrayed her as very insecure and it just wasn’t what I expect from my girl.
