Presumption doesn't feel like a sequel, or even a presumption of what the sequel to Pride and Prejudice should be like. The writing style is so Austen, you'd really wonder if the author wrote it herself. It really is an indulgence.
I have a huge crush on P&P's Mr. Darcy. Then I met Persuasion's Captain Wentworth. His subtle ways, his feelings bottled up after 8 long years, his letter to Anne. I was really persuaded. The most romantic book Austen wrote.
I'd gladly lend my copy to anyone who's willing! x
