I give Enthusiasm a B+. Great book. My aunt Patty recommended it to me and if Patty says it is good then it is good. She is an English major and has read everything!
This book is a spin off of Pride and Predjudice but the best part of it is how funny and refreshing it is. My favorite character was Ash, the best friend of the main character, Julia. Ash is obsessed with Jane Austin novels and speaks entirely in Jane Austin lingo. It's so freaking hilarious. She even calls her best friend's mom, "Ms. Lethgowitz." Its just a nice little romantic comedy and the dialogue is just great. You are kept guessing until the very end who the "Mr. Darcy" of the story is, but if you are like me you sorta know what is gonna happen.
Anyway this is the quickest read ever and it really was so refreshing since I have been reading exclusively and constantly mysteries or drama for the past couple years.
