I admit that I'm not an Austen fan, but I've enjoyed Smith's books in the past. So while the writing was good, I found myself thinking the book was going nowhere at a slow pace. Again.....not knowing the original storyline well, but I found the main character to be totally unlikeable, which I understand that she is supposed to be, but it took the entire book for the "light bulb" to come on for her so to speak, and then the book ended. Rather disappointed in the book.
