I really enjoyed the character building and how full the FMCs personalities were. The nods to Pride and Prejudice were great and the second book was well set up. I didn't love the end. It felt abrupt and I wish there had been a few more pages or an epilogue. There was so much angst and I felt a lot was still left unsaid. It was nice to observe the relationships with family and friends. The progression of the relationship was realistic.
