Not that I've read Pride and Prejudice too many times, or anything

What is with all these novels from Fitzwilliam Darcy's perspective, or the "sequel" to P+P, Darcy's Daughters? Has anyone read them? Are they as awful as I assume they are? I know that one of the authors was like, commissioned to write a sequel, but, um... EEW ( Read more... )

My sister told me "Mr Darcy Takes a Wife" was good, though a lot of those books are just way too fan-fiction sultry. She read me the scene where Lydia "explains" husbandly needs to Jane and Lizzie and I was practically on the floor. Something about Jane looking at Bingly's trousers in horror as though a deranged squirrel was going to fly out at any moment.

Well, I've read Love In The Time of Cholera, which I really liked, and I like Hudred Years of Solitude, all the characters are just named the same thing, and I think I put it down for too long.

I can't believe you of all people have nothing to say about this whole Darcy fiasco.
