To say Lizzie and Dante are polar opposites is the understatement of the century. He's a snooty Exeter transfer with more money than Google. She's a driven study-a-holic barely keeping up with tuition. It's obvious that Dante thinks he's way too good for Lizzie. And Lizzie knows Dante is a snob with a gift for pushing her buttons.
But things are changing fast this year at the Academy. And when Lizzie's quest to stop those changes blows up in her face, taking her oldest friendship with it, she has nowhere else to turn but to Dante, with his killer blue eyes, his crazy-sexy smile, and his secrets... Secrets Lizzie can't seem to leave alone, no matter how hard she tries...

Inky's Blurbings:
This book is the size of a Novella, and yet it's still so fun and fresh! It was a super quick read for me but I totally loved this retelling of Pride and Prejudice! I'm a big fan of JA and so I love any retelling I can get my hands on.
One thing I loved about this particular book was how it wasn't strict to the story. It was it's own story cleverly woven with the classic story. She didn't have every single person (like no Caroline Bingley) from the story but she had the most important ones. Though I was sad for no Mr. Collins. Lizzie was pretty true to the original with that whole character change. That was done really well. I like how she was portrayed. I could connect to her as well. Always a plus.
As the story progressed I began to see how the author was setting up for sequels and I can tell you it made me a little giddy. If you know the main JA stories you could probably figure it out. It's such a sweet book and I'm sure the sequels will be to! Honestly I have no complaints except that maybe a little more Dante and Lizzie would have been nice!
Overall a fun read full of gorgeous people, Jane Austen, and romance. Plus a little pride and some prejudice.
