A modern trans-Pacific twist on Pride and Prejudice, from an authentic team of debut authors who know their material, and deliver it heartwarmingly and hilariously

Inspired by Pride and Prejudice this modern tale captures the spirit and energy of Austen's original satire of manners, while updating and developing it for contemporary audiences, coming of age in the 2020s.

The quiet coastal community of Pippi Beach is rocked when a party of young Hollywood movie stars and influencers arrives for the summer. Like most of the locals, mum Lydia is thrilled but her teenage daughter Lily finds the Hollywood types are superficial and arrogant–especially Dorian Khan, the most famous of them all. Lily's opinion is confirmed by handsome backpacker Alex, who has quite the story about Dorian's past. On a holiday to Los Angeles, Lily stays with family friend Wilson, an ambitious player who introduces her to powerful movie producer Stacy Black. Lily is in turns amused and appalled by the excesses of the movie business, and more than a little surprised when Dorian Khan seeks her out. Could they actually become friends? And what's more, has she been what she hopes never to be ... stupid?

Like going to an adventurous Shakespeare Fest where a play you think you know well is reinvented in a contemporary, inventive and insightful way but this time with Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice.” Hard to pick out a favorite character as portrayed through the co-author’s sparkly-to-barbed narration but loved Cecilia’s every vapid utterance in particular. Highly recommended for the all kinds of surprises within.

I did really enjoy the story, but what really kept me entangled was Angourie Rice's narration of the story. It really felt like I was listening to the novel in the most purest form of which it was meant to be told.

It's obviously a little predictable but I do love pride and prejudice and how this puts a new spin on it. It was entertaining to listen to.

Fun read
