I don't know..." but then I read somewhere (probably AustenAuthors) where you described Darcy as the broody but passionate guitarist more in the background, vs. Bingley and Richard's "front man" personalities, and it totally made sense. I'm super excited about reading it. Caroline being a manager is a great way for her to plan and monitor every moment of Darcy's life Lol.MonicaPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059381106713282439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-728299089353541511.post-86307031491736673492011-08-18T17:22:44.941-04:002011-08-18T17:22:44.941-04:00I love the whole MTV thing!

But I try to remain pretty open when it comes to retellings of Jane Austen's books because that's what they are, another way of looking at things. Honestly, sometimes it turns out pretty well, and admittedly, the more I read about your book the more interested I am.So I'll definitely be picking up a copy.
