Title: Confessions of a spin-off junky:
Product review: Granted I had just read two VERY POORLY written P&P spin-offs shortly before reading this one...therfore; my review may be slightly colored. Yet, I declare it was pleasantly mild and entertaining. It will not suit those searching for the steamy details of a true-love marriage, and it will not sate the appetites of those who feel the need to find some psychological or sociological deviance in the beloved characters... which may be exactly WHY it provided such a breath of fresh air for me. It was a quick and enjoyable extension of a story I love. The characters were not perfectly upheld (who but Jane herself could truly do them justice?), and there was not much of climax to the story. But a nice visit with old "friends" in a style that was not unpleasant to read. Best of all this is truly an extension of the book, not one of the movies (especially the K.Knightly version which is hardly a true retelling in itself).
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
