There most certainly is a character in a book...YES. There most certainly is a character in a book I wouldn't mind falling in love with and I think you know which one. I think, if I read this book, I would have mixed feelings about it too. A slow romance isn't too bad for me but the mean character doesn't sound nice. Thumbs up for being honest and not putting the book down too hard. I did really like the first paragraph of the blurb by the way, made it already sound interesting. It is a unique idea when you think about it.

I have a feeling the ending of this book was kinda similar? I've always felt that the P&P spin-off type books are never that wonderful. Good and honest review, though :) Great blog!<br /><br />Keep in touch!<br />Jen xx<br /><a href="http://jenteablog.com" rel="nofollow">jenteablog.com</a> <br />JenTeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12651341580622894754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964812786330789100.post-58600222757731849992014-11-17T20:07:38.457+01:002014-11-17T20:07:38.457+01:00I think this is my feels when it comes to a lot of...I think this is my feels when it comes to a lot of classics, but then I end up enjoying them immensely in the end!

It is a truly wonderful story, full of romance and historical fiction. And Mr. Darcy. *Sigh* I've never heard of this book, but I probably would have ended up reading it if I hadn't seen your review. Underwhelming romances are almost sad to read. I love my paranormal books because, even if the romance isn't great, at least there is a ton of craziness going on that distracts from the poorly written relationships! Hopefully your next read is more exciting!<br />Morrighan @ <a href="http://ufbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Elysian Fields</a>.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02196945104592374912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964812786330789100.post-59804544531847787152014-11-14T23:53:15.980+01:002014-11-14T23:53:15.980+01:00Nice to know I am not alone in this ^.^Nice to know I am not alone in this ^.^Olivia's Catastrophehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706765857201768908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964812786330789100.post-22186720278268024512014-11-14T23:41:40.266+01:002014-11-14T23:41:40.266+01:00Ha ha I will try to!
