Pretty good variation! Love that it uses quotes from the original.

Well done sequel, even if it wasn't done by Jane Austin; it read like it could have been done by her.

Wow, Juliette Shapiro has truly mastered Jane Austen's way of writing..
Though no once can imitate Jane Austen's style totally, I can't imagine anyone
employing words any nearer to Jane Austen's than Juliette Shapiro!
Truly wonderful. Now, I don't doubt that Sanditon will be very good! :)

Not the best P&P sequel I've ever read. While not the worst, this one has a place near the bottom of the list.

At times the author was trying to write with Austen's language, but just confusing me. I actually had to read the sentences two or three times before I understood what she meant to say, and what could have been conveyed a little easier.

A lot of repeating lines from the original novel, which did frustrate me a little. There was even a part of the novel that showed the entirety of Darcy's letter to Elizabeth from Hunsford! Extremely unecessary - the opening line of the letter and a brief explanation would have sufficed.

The story felt like it didn't really have a purpose until close to the end, and it wasn't really until the last 50 pages or so that I felt I had picked up a half-decent book.

Not one I would recommend to fans of Austen Sequels.
