Why read it?
1 author picked Faults of Understanding as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My favorite trope for Pride & Prejudice variations is a forced or arranged marriage. In this book, Mr. Darcy’s infamously rude proposal to Elizabeth is overheard. Rumors quickly spread, and they are quickly forced to marry or else be ruined.
I really enjoy watching Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy working hard to make their marriage work. I admire her determination to make the best of the situation, and I love seeing Darcy fall in love with her all over again.
From Tiffany's list on Pride & Prejudice variations set in Regency Times.
