Resumen del Editor
One of the great what-ifs among Pride & Prejudice aficionados is: If Mr. Collins married Mary Bennet instead of Charlotte Lucas, how would that influence Mr. Darcy's dogged pursuit of the elusive Elizabeth? In this breezy and hilarious re-telling of Jane Austin's classic novel, the author explores what would have changed - and what would have not - had two of literature's most self-righteous characters found their way together. Elizabeth Bennet goes to Kent with her sister Jane, and the fur flies! A wonderful, mad-cap romp!

Historia
Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed, Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage; nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

Historia
One of the turning points in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is Miss Elizabeth Bennet's passionate refusal and denunciation of the equally passionate but infinitely more repressed Fitzwilliam Darcy. However, unforeseen events can lead to the most unexpected consequences. During a visit with her friend, Charlotte Collins, at Hunsford, Elizabeth falls prey to illness for almost the first time in her life just as Mr. Darcy comes to call. Befuddled by her illness, she misinterprets his proposal of marriage, and a simple nod of acknowledgment is mistaken for acceptance.

A tempestuous acquaintance and disastrous marriage proposal makes it unlikely Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet will ever reconcile. Despairing of their own reunion, they attend with great energy to salvaging that of Darcy’s friend Mr. Bingley and Elizabeth’s sister Jane. People are rarely so easily maneuvered in and out of love, however, they follow a series of misunderstandings, both willful and unwitting, that complicates all four star-crossed lovers’ alliances more than ever before.

Historia
It is a truth universally acknowledged that one false step can involve a lady in endless ruin. On a rainy November day in 1811, Miss Elizabeth Bennet finds herself wondering why no one ever bothered to tell her about this. A few blithe steps on a morning walk taken after a succession of rain lead to unexpected events that irrevocably change the course of Elizabeth's life, placing her fate in the hands of the haughty and conceited Mr. Darcy - the last man in the world she had ever thought to marry.

Thoroughly Enjoyed It
What if Dr. Who went back in time and accidentally tripped Mary Bennet - and in so doing altered the entire flow of events in Pride & Prejudice? Rest assured, Dr. Who is not in this book. I picked up this book because I always secretly wanted Mary and Mr. Collins to get together. I kept reading because it felt like I was watching the deleted scenes of Pride & Prejudice. The author uses the phrase "I believe I will be ill now" far too much, but other than that, a very fun read.

Ok
I’ve read so many Pride and Prejudice Variations that this version was not very different leading to a bit boring read.
Not a spectacular read but mediocre.

Intersting premise
This was entertaining. It picks up after Bingley and Darcy leave folllowing the Netherfield Ball. Elizabeth and Jane go to Huntsford to visit sister Mary, who has married Rev. Collins. Mary does a good job managing Rev Collins and lives a fairly contented life. The "letter from Darcy" part of the original story happens except that both Jane and Elizabeth get a letter. Mr. Darcy tries to correct the Bingley/Jane separation. The visit to Pemberly by the Gardeniers happens, except Jane and Elizabeth are with them. Overall the story follows the original plot except there are additions of people and some small twists. I like the combination of Darcy/Bingley/Gardiner/Col Fitzwilliam/Mr. Bennett as they hunt for and confront Wickham. At the end Charlotte and Anne are settled satisfactorily. Lady Katherine is handled well. Caroline and Lydia get their just rewards. I just wish I could enter the Longbourne world for a few minutes to slap Mrs. Bennett. She is so disgusting.

I like this one
It hits my favorite alternates. Mary marries Mr. Collins (who isn't a bad man, just rather stupid), Anne marries Colonel Fitzwilliam, and even Charlotte gets a happy ending. Oh, and Lady Catherine isn't a total monster.

A Good 'What if'.
Enjoyable Pride and Prejudice variation. In many ways it follows canon, but with enough differences to keep one interested. The character portrayals were the main differences. I love the twists in the Mary, Anne, and Jane portrayals. Bingley learned a good lesson, Anne was a good friend to the Bennet sisters, and Mary proved wiser beyond her years. Typical Wickham and Lydia, and I rather enjoyed the author’s take on Elizabeth’s Wickham set down. Nicely done.
The narrator reads well, but I feel like there’s not enough difference between her narrative and character voices at times to realise someone else has started speaking. Fans of P&P can easily figure it out quickly though through the dialogue. Also there's not enough differentiation of the male and female characters. I think some attention to this, along with adjusting pausing and pace where appropriate in the dialogue and between scenes would help to improve the enjoyment of this audiobook. I had to slow the playback to 0.9.

Nice changes to the story!
This author uses Jane Austen books as the base of his stories, and then makes some interesting changes! At first I thought that this book might be vacuous, as other authors have made Austen's books - but this author made some changes that were actually interesting and good. This book is based on the change that the heir to Longbourne, through entailment, Mr. Collins, the vicar, instead of marrying Charlotte Lucas, marries Lizzie's sister, Mary Bennet, because he sees a kindred spirit in her love and study of the Bible. This means that both Jane and Elizabeth Bennet go to Rosings Park. Towards the end of the book, this author nicely wraps up each characters matrimonial state, including some you may not suspect. I enjoyed his twists in the plot! And the narrator was very good, too!
