Brief Synopsis: Remember Anne de Bourgh from Pride and Prejudice? Not many people do, but she is the sad, sickly girl originally betrothed to Mr. Darcy with the nasty, nasty mother. In this retelling, Anne is able to regain her health and finally live the life of her dreams.
Thoughts: I love a good retelling and the story of Anne is just perfect for such a tale. We discover the Anne's illness was a result of morphine and once she kicks the habit, she finds that she really is brave enough to face the world. The telling is a little slow but the book is short and I made it through easily enough. If you are a fan of Pride and Prejudice I suggest giving this one a try.
