Review Detail

After winter break, the girls at the very prestigious Longbourn Academy become obsessed with the prom. Lizzie Bennet, who attends Longbourn on a scholarship, isnt interested in designer dresses and expensive shoes, but her best friend, Jane, might be especially now that Charles Bingley is back from a semester in London.

Lizzie is happy about her friends burgeoning romance but less than impressed by Charless friend, Will Darcy, whos snobby and pretentious. Darcy doesnt seem to like Lizzie either, but she assumes its because her family doesnt have money. Clearly, Will Darcy is a pompous jerk so why does Lizzie find herself drawn to him anyway?
Will Lizzies pride and Wills prejudice keep them apart? Or are they a prom couple in the making?
~From Goodreads

As a big fan of Austens Pride and Prejudice , I wasnt sure how I would feel about this book. It turns out, I was delightfully surprised! I really enjoyed it. I loved the encounters between Lizzie and Will Darcy. They both had such jaded opinions of the others social status that it made for some interesting dialogue between the two. I loved Wills character, once you get past his pompous attitude; there is a lot to discover about him. I absolutely loved him, big time swoon-worthy.

I was able to sink right in to this one; the dialogue was smooth and reminded me of Austen but had a modern high school twist. I was surprised by the ending, which is one reason why I liked it so much. Even if you havent read Pride and Prejudice, you wont feel left out. Prom and Prejudice is a fun, quick read that I think will have you picking this one up again and again.
