ArecRain (8 KP) rated Evan And Darcy in Books
Jan 18, 2018
I was on a Jane Austen kick when this popped up on Net Galley. I was delightfully surprised that this novel wasnt 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 doesnt butcher the feel of the original, I highly recommend this novel.

An absolutely brilliant female retelling of Sherlock Holmes's classic first mystery. The writing is intelligent and the characters are on point. I absolutely adored the humor, mystery, and skillful unraveling of the threads of Miss Charlotte Holmes. It was far better than I expected.

An interesting group of stories that are all related, and yet not related, Tales from the Loop does an excellent job of presenting the audience with a beautiful set of stories that are visually compelling, interesting, and unique. Feels like a modern retelling of the Twilight zone.
