About this listen
"Angry people are not always wise." -Jane Austen
After a standoff in the pizza parlor, Elsie Bennet has decided Fitzwilliam "I-Throw-Fitz" Darcy is the worst customer she's ever encountered. Also the best looking, but that's beside the point. She's horrified to discover Will is not just passing through her small town, he's her new neighbor.
Will Darcy has all the money and time he could ask for, and yet life never seems to meet his expectations. When his best friend, Charlie, starts dating Jane Bennet, Will becomes their unhappy third-wheel. The solution? Bring along Jane's sister, Elsie, a girl who challenges him, makes him laugh, plagues his thoughts, and, unfortunately, hates his guts.
Will might control a lot of things, but he won't control her. Elsie's already been warned away by her new friend, Jeff Wickham, who found out the hard way that Will is not someone to be crossed. Things would be so much simpler if she was attracted to Jeff. But she's not. She's attracted to Will, and the tug-o-war between her mind and her heart is going to drive her mad.

Elizabeth Bennet dreads encountering Mr. Darcy when she visits Pemberley, for surely, after she spurned his offer of marriage, he must despise her. Yet they do meet, and to her astonishment, he holds no resentment towards her. Regrettably, someone else does. Unbeknownst to Elizabeth, her reintroduction to the master of Pemberley is far from universally welcomed. There are others for whom prejudice is stirred up by the familiarity between Miss Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.

Northern California girl Charlotte “Charlie” Lucas has two great loves: Diet Coke and Pride and Prejudice. But her passion for Regency classics is tempered by a very real fear: Charlie is terrified of having to endure the fate of her namesake—spinsterhood. Despite her best attempts to maintain a modern sensibility, she can’t say no when an elderly neighbor asks Charlie to attend a charity ball with her grandson. Blind date or not, Charlie is powerless to resist the allure of a real-life ball. Soon it’s clear that she will struggle to resist the charms of her blind date too.

I should’ve known I couldn’t avoid seeing Hudson Remington again for the rest of my life, especially when we share best friends who are getting married. Does that mean I’m prepared to run into him? Nope. Not one bit. I am less prepared when my best friend requests he and I plan a joint bachelor party. Of course I’d be stuck with the man who broke my heart. Why would the universe stop at a simple encounter?

Shocked to say, it is my favorite
I don’t know what it is about this book but it is my favorite...a little embarrassed about how many times I have listened to it ... it is magical ... I keep coming back over and over again

fun read!
Well done and well written. My only complaint is about the narrator in this one area: you are not supposed to pronounce a hard g at the end of the words like hang. It was very distracting. Other than that she did a good job.

Nothing Special but entertaining
I don’t like the changes to the story, and it wasn’t great or super special, but it was entertaining enough to finish!

super fun
this was a super fun, updated pride and prejudice retelling. I somehow didn't know what was going to happen and I enjoyed it the whole way through.

Cute retelling
The story was a cute retelling of Ms. Austen pride and prejudice. I will check out what else the author has written

Creative, clean P&P retelling
Story: 5 stars
I loved this story and felt that Rachel John faithfully kept the bones of the story and made it believable to a modern audience.
Almost all of the characters were spot-on-true to their Austen-selves, except Elsie. Her teasing humor simply was not there. I’ve read tons of P&P variations and re-tellings and I can count on one hand the authors who have succeeded in writing Elizabeth’s humor, so I didn’t take away any stars.
This was such a clever retelling. Ms. Johns came up with great scenarios that explained Darcy’s hatred of Wickham as well as careers for Mr. & Mrs. Bennet, Lydia, even Mr. Collins and Mrs.DeBourgh! Some serious thought went into crafting modern versions of characters and modern situations that reflect the original.
Narrator: 4 stars
Ms. Emmes did a good job. Her voices for Lydia, Caroline and Mrs. Bennet were particularly apropos. She read at a good pace and her expression was very good. Her male voices weren’t my favorite but I tend to favor deeper voices in narrators and I feel badly for critiquing something she has no control over. Her acting was totally respectable.
*poor, **ok, ***good, ****very good, *****something special

A cute modern Pride and Prejudice
I'm not sure why Elizabeth's name was changed, but I enjoyed this light-hearted retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
I was surprised the Gardeners weren't included in the story at all and how much I disliked Charlie. But it's a sweet and fun story.
