P.D.James writes well, but she describes people very differently than how I understood them from Pride and Prejudice. When I forgot whom she was writing about, the story was interesting, but every now and then I thought “For heaven's sake!”, “How could it be like that?” “but... she wouldn't have thought that!”
And then the romantic crap! Especially the last chapter and afterwords... could have let be unread. Syrup. I can't!
When one sees it as a Regency romance novel with some additional color from the murder, it's OK.
But I won't read this again.
