Book Review of Me and Mr. Darcy

Me and Mr. Darcy
Me and Mr. Darcy
Author: Alexandra Potter
Genre: Romance
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 4


At times I wanted to tell the main character to get over herself, to stop being such an ugly American, and to stop manufacturing her anger. You know what's going to happen in the end. And at times, I wanted to say, "Hello! It's a dream...what's taking you so long to figure that out?!" Eventually, however, the character and I got past all that. In the end, I liked the result and a couple little twists I didn't expect. And with that...I'll stop.

The book isn't great literature but it was a fast read and a reminder of what pride and prejudice can do to our judgment if we're not careful. Hopefully, most of us are more careful about our snap judgments than the main character. It's also a good reminder to keep track of what is fact and what is fiction in our lives.
