a happy place

I love this book with my whole heart. It's so comforting. Whenever I need to feel safe or calm, I just start listening to it and I feel like I am transported into a dreamy alternate reality with lovable characters and my problems fade away. It's such a light read.

A sweet teen novel for young-at-heart listeners

When Julia lends her best friend Pride and Prejudice, Ashleigh gets just a bit too enthusiastic, and Julia finds herself reluctantly going along with a plan to crash the local posh boys' school dance to capture the hearts of their very own Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley.

Polly Shulman has written a sweet homage to Jane Austen, which paints a realistic picture of fad-crazed middle-American teens, self involvement, and miscommunication.

Delightfully read by Suzanne Toren.

a childhood favourite

I love this book, the story and the characters are absolutely charming.

The narration was slightly awkard at times, I always find female narrators trying to do male voices a bit strange, but overall it was a great experience. I'll be listening over and over again.
