I wanted to read this book for such a long time and finally I read it. Let me first start with the good points. I really loved that Emily was so into Jane Austen. I am, on myself. She made a booktour, over New Years Eve. Which, I really have to add, is absolutely fantastic. I really would like to make such a tour. Just visit the same places Jane did. What a dreamy thought. Emily is 29 and makes this tour together with some older women from England or Ireland. She dreamed about Mr Darcy her whole life and she just wants to date a guy like him. But I can tell you one thing: Reality and fantasy aren't the same. You need to know that Mr Darcy was a man from the 19th century. Good looking guy, aristocratic style and manner. He has his own values. But he is not that bad like Emily just thought at the middle of that book. Just remember about how he looked at Elizabeth after she just came on her own (without a horse or a carriage) to see her sister in Netherfield. She was full of rotten and her dress was a mess. But Mr Darcy was a gentleman. After a while Fitzwilliam figured out how to treat Lizzy and that she totally had a strong mind and she was stubborn. Both were full of pride and both had prejudice. Okay, just remember this because it's part of the story. Even there is no Lizzy. It's the time after the ball in Netherfield and before they finally meet again. Noone really knows what Mr Darcy done during Christmas and New Years Eve. Noone but Emily, of cause. There are a few points I didn't liked at all. At her first night in England she got drunk! Really Common'! She's an american girl on her first trip to England and just got drunken! I am 29 and sometimes I drank a bit more than it was good for me. To be honest: I would never drink too much on a trip like that! I mean, she was on a book tour with some other Jane Austen lovers and didn't really realized it. I don't want to mention her disaster at the ball after she smoke a joint! Really! And she never took place at some conversations about the books Miss Austen wrote. I would LOVE to talk the whole time about one of my heroines. I really love Jane Austens novells. Not just P&P but also her others. I love how Fanny changed, what Edmund did to her and I love that Mr Knightley was always there. He was that guy you just need to love because he is good for you. But Emma was just on a match-making trip and almost ruined everything. Okay, so I'm not so much into Northhanger Aby but it was more because of Miss Morland. I liked the Dashwood-girls too. And of cause I totally felt for Anne. She loved Captain Wentworth so much but was just "Persuaded". You see? There are plenty of thing to talk about. Just think about the movies. I loved Colin Firth in that BBC adaption 20 years ago and I loved Matthew MacFadyen who also played Mr Darcy ten years ago. So many good themes to talk about! But I do loved the fact that she run a bookstore (I would love to live or work in one, too) and that she just changed a lot through the trip. A guy just like Wickham was in it, too. Of cause he was right? When a man comes to you and just tell you his whole story something isn't really correct. Just think about Mr Wickham. George was that sweet and sexy guy everyone loved. But he told some lies. Lizzy believed it, because she wanted to believe it. At that point she really hated Mr Darcy. And at that point of the story she just would believe everything. Everything was so clear for her that she didn't ask anything at all. Back to "Me and Mr Darcy". There is that guy, Spike, a journalist who had to write a story about "Mr Darcy: the dream date". Would F. Darcy really be a dream date? A dream is a dream and to be honest: let it there. You can't compare the perfect guy from the 19th century with a 21th century man. He was a gentleman and nowadays there aren't many of them. And if, don't really trust a guy who is too friendly. Every man has a dark side. One day every dark side just breaks out. But not every dark side is mean. For most of them it just means that they don't bring you flowers anymore or just forget the weddingday. Never be in a hurry to find true love. It just comes. But after all, I really liked the beginning and the end.
