I didn't feel a great connection to any of the charecters. I was expecting more Austen and felt a bit dissapointed. It was a good read not a great read. I found myself loosing track of who is who and who had a connection to the other in the group.

Whether you read Jane Austen or Not...read this book. I did see the movie before i even knew it was a book and i did enjoy the movie more than the book which is unusual. Having watched the movie helped me identify with the charachters in the book. I love all the charachters in the book, it was a little slow to start but worth finishing...some clever things were in the book and not the movie! So enjoy!
