Me and Mr. Darcy

2007

By: Alexandra Potter

Rating: 4.5

This book has something that most Jane Austen borrowed plotlines don't. And that is the acknowledgement that the plot is actually borrowed. I also like that the main character of Me and Mr. Darcy, Emily Albright, doesn't completely succumb to the stereotypical "Jane Austen girl". She knows that she fantasizes about Mr. Darcy, and that he is fictional, and she's not actually looking for someone who is Mr. Darcy. That is, until she finds Mr. Darcy himself.

Me and Mr. Darcy was a fun read; it was easy, and enjoyable. The only downside was that the novel was pretty predictable. But in this case, I expected that it would be. And I didn't mind in the slightest. I would definitely read Me and Mr. Darcy if I were you - especially if you're at all a fan of Jane Austen.
