It's entirely possible I end up not liking it very much, but it's also possible I'll enjoy it. In either case, it won't take away from the enjoyment Austen's novel has given me over the years, just as the Sense and Sensibility fanfiction (of the non-commercial, fan-written kind) that I've read over the years, most of it admittedly not very good, didn't make me think any worse of the book.

Good for you! I'm going to wait until the paperback release, at which time the ebook should fall considerably in price. It's rather expensive at the moment.
Please do let us all know what your opinion is, after you've read it.
