"Mr. Darcy's Diary"

Let me start by saying, if you haven't read (or watched) "Pride and Prejudice", you need to turn around right now and read it. Then you can come back to this book.  "Mr. Darcy's Diary", by Amanda Grange, is the perfect addition to the beloved "Pride and Prejudice" story. It retells the love story between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, only this time it's from Darcy's point of view. The author takes Mr. Darcy and basically turns him inside out and shows his deepest feelings and secret thoughts. It's all of the things that the reader pictures Darcy thinking during "Pride and Prejudice", only his thoughts are right there on the page for you to read, reread, and savor.

It's obvious that the author pulls her story from both the book by Jane Austen as well as the movie (the version with Keira Knightley in it) because there are some lines that are almost direct quotes from the movie, but the general storyline follows that from the book. If you are familiar with these then you will know exactly what I mean when you read this one. The author also takes the story and adds on to it. Perfectly depicting what life would have been like for Elizabeth and Darcy after their marriage. This book is a very easy read, is good for all ages, and will only add to your love for this timeless story. Let me know what you think!
