A New Take on a Classic Tale | Review: First Impressions by Debra White Smith

About The Book
Lawyer Eddi Boswick tries out for a production of Pride and Prejudice in her small Texas town. When she's cast as the lead, Elizabeth Bennet, her romantic co-star is none other than the town's most eligible--and arrogant--bachelor.
My Thoughts
My thoughts on this book are a little conflicted. On one
hand, there were parts that I liked, and then there parts that I didn’t care
for. I thought it was a little odd that there were only three Boswick sisters,
and that Carissa (this story’s version of Caroline Bingley) and Conner Boswick
(Mr. Collins) were such small parts of the story. I suppose some of this was
done to keep the story moving at a faster pace. Mary Boswick was every bit as
awful as Mrs. Bennet, maybe even worse. As for Eddi… I didn’t love her the way
I love Elizabeth Bennet, but that is asking a lot from a character. There were
times when she got on my nerves, but for the most she was a decent character. I
don’t think Dave Davidson was as proud Mr. Darcy, but he was still a pompous
character. He was an okay hero.
Overall, First
Impressions was an okay book, but not particularly my cup of tea. I
wouldn’t come to this book looking for a Pride
and Prejudice retelling that stays true to the original plot, but I think
diehard fans of contemporary romance will enjoy this book.
I give this book 3 out of 5 stars.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Bethany
House through NetGalley. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.
