This version of the Bennet family - and Mr. Darcy - is one that you have and haven't met before: Liz is a magazine writer in her late 30s who, like her yoga instructor older sister, Jane, lives in New York City. When their father has a health scare, they return to their childhood home in Cincinnati to help - and discover that the sprawling Tudor they grew up in is crumbling, and the family is in disarray.

An interesting, too long, twist on the original

If you loved Pride & Prejudice, you may not love this book. Though the update is good fun at times (the younger sisters loving CrossFit was a nice touch), the author relies too heavily on backstory and "quirky character pieces" to make this a favorite.
