Audio book. The voices used for some of the characters gave me a headache. They really didn't need to be so grating. There has to be another way to portray their personalities without annoying voices. Teddy Hamilton was great.

as someone who honestly isn't very fond of the hate to love trope in romance books, i was prepared to not love this one very much, considering it is a retelling of the one who started it all: pride and prejudice. i knew i'd enjoy it to some extent, because i really enjoyed the first installment of the series, but i was preparing myself to not be that connected to the couple itself. oh how wrong i was, and how happy to be wrong i was too.

lizzy and will gave me everything i needed and so much more. from the very start, i was enthralled with their dynamic, going into that classic banter between people who clearly dislike each other and watching that banter turn into a friendlier one. i couldn't help my cheesy grin when we finally got to the more romantic/couple-y scenes. i literally can't stop thinking about them ever since i reached the end" and i'm sensing a reread will be coming sooner rather than later.

the secondary characters were EVERYTHING. i had a blast with each one of them, their different personalities and how that shined through every scene. throughout the book, i was caring for jane and charlie almost as much as the main characters, and if that doesn't say what a great job they did with all these characters, i don't know what can.

truthfully, i'm having trouble with putting into words how much i loved this book, and to quote knightley himself *wink* *wink*, “Well, if I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.”

audrey bellezza and emily harding are quickly going into my list of auto-buy authors. i can't wait for what's coming next from them (specially coming from these series, hello!)
