I read reviews on this book say that the story was so predictable and that it wasn't all that good. Okay so admittedly it is predictable. It is called Me and Mr. Darcy and you know just by starting it that she can't possibly end up with Mr. Darcy. And then there is Spike. All the misunderstanding. It's simply a modern story set on the same lines and when you think about it so many disputes between people are because they simply don't know all the facts. 
 I truly liked this book. I liked watching Emily get over all her prejudices when it came to Spike. Of course, you have to admit the whole drinking scene was Spike being a pain. Well, later Emily does say something about British sense of humor. Maybe it's really that different. I wouldn't know. 
 Right now I'm trying to decide whether or not to keep the book or swap it and buy myself a fresh copy! I really enjoyed it but I have to think whether or not I will read it again. I can't decide if it is re-readable. Still I loved it.
