Pride

Wrote a review for

Prideby

I haven’t read Pride and Prejudice yet, but this remix by Ibi Zoboi was beautifully done.

We follow Zuri, who’s all about her Brooklyn roots and her family, and then Darius and his wealthy family move in across the street acting real standoffish at first. They definitely start off a little tense, but watching their relationship slowly grow was so good.

Everything about this story just worked for me, the characters felt real, the sense of community was so strong, and the romance was done in such a soft, meaningful way. You could really feel the tension and growth between them.

I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Elizabeth Acevedo, and she did an amazing job bringing the story to life. Her voice added so much emotion and realness.
