I thought a complete change of pace would be good. I got this when it was a freebie. On the half chapter I've read so far I'm not sure it's worth more than that, but I'll give it a chapter or two to prove me wrong first.
I gave it a chapter or two, and it got worse. Poor quality fan-fic that should never have been properly published, based on the first few chapters that I've read. But if you want a move-by-move account of a wedding night of two characters named Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy and Mrs Fitzwilliam Darcy (née Elizabeth Bennett) who seem to bear little relationship to the characters in Pride and Prejudice except their names, be my guest. At least I only wasted half an hour and not half an hour and some money as well. I recommend keeping your distance from this tosh.

Next up: Shaking Hands with Lefkowitz by Melvin Foster.

Wow — I bought this back in August 2005. It must be one of the longest serving titles in my TBR pile. The premise is interesting (if only as fantasy): an examination of a life after death. Unfortunately, I'm not certain I'm going to like the way it seems to be going.
