Pemberly's Christmas Governess by Regina Jeffers

 Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite classics to read and reimagining's and reinventions of classics are some of my favorite stories to read. And this book is no exception. When I first read the premise, I was curious as to just how the author would turn this into a new story while still retaining the main ideas from the original. 

This story does not have as many characters as the original book although most of them were mentioned. However, out of the Bennet family, only Elizabeth was an active character in the story. 

The premise of the book that spun out to create the story was a fascinating glimpse into what could be if after Mr. Collins proposal, Mr. Bennett died and the Bennett family went through what Mrs. Bennett always feared would happen. 

This is a fun little Christmas story with familiar characters and a fun little misunderstanding debacle that the reader can't believe goes on for as long as it does. But its a good type of misunderstanding where everyone is just trying to be as polite as possible and no one ever asks to clarify anything and as the reader all you can do is enjoy it while it lasts. 

I received this book free from NetGalley and Regency Solutions to review and this is my honest review. 

Five out of five stars
