I was on a Jane Austen kick when this popped up on Net Galley. I was delightfully surprised that this novel wasn’t horrible. Jane Austen retellings/rip offs are a dime a dozen, especially modern versions. However, I felt that this was a lovely retelling. I felt is held true to its inspirations and I likes Evan and Darcy almost as much as Elizabeth and Darcy. The side characters were just as meddling and frustrating too!

Bottom line, if you want a cute modern retelling that doesn’t butcher the feel of the original, I highly recommend this novel.

Beatrice Kitsos as Falyn at the end of the film. (0 more)
Having never seen a Chucky film before I'm not sure how to take them, this was quite amusing, in a gory overkill kind of a way. I liked the modern technology aspect of the movie despite it giving me haunting memories of my own Google Home trying to scare me, and I think that will particularly appeal to more modern audiences. For the life of me though I don't understand how the Buddi doll made it through focus testing.
