Review: If you loved P&P, must read - Beautifully written. Also makes you think about P&P characters again, in a more critical way, which is good. Review: Vivid English countryside - Longbourn made me want to reread Pride and Prejudice. (Although, I didn't because I'm lazy. But, that's another matter.) It was one of the slowest page turners I ever read, but a page turner nonetheless. The book provides a very vivid description of the English countryside, with strangely endearing characters and a twist with Mr Bennett that you wouldn't believe. Oh, and let's not forget the delicious food. This is not just a book for Jane Austen fans, but any fan of good writing.

Beautifully written. Also makes you think about P&P characters again, in a more critical way, which is good.

Pathetic quality of the book
I did not order a used book - yet what I have got is either second hand or one of those pirated books off the street

Lovely book
It's set at the same time that Pride b Prejudice was happening.. it's the servants story.. it's a little late in the sense that Downton Abbey has already cornered and excelled at that space.. and was nice to read backstories of the main characters from a different pov.
