Literature's most famous hero, Mr. Darcy, opens his diary to disclose a complex, passionate inner world.
The Private Diary of Mr. Darcy is a captivating novel of love, pride, passion, and, of course, prejudice. Off-stage events barely mentioned in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice are revealed, and many surprising new facts come to light, such as Mr. Darcy's proposal of marriage to another young woman. Mr. Darcy writes of his daily life as a society gentleman in Georgian London and of his dangerous friendship with Lord Byron, and he tells the full story of his sister's infatuation with the dastardly Wickham. Most importantly, he describes how he gradually falls in love with Elizabeth Bennet, and, in the process, painfully gains self-knowledge.

TW SEXUAL ASSAULT
Yeah I was confused when I started reading this. Alot of the characterization didn't seem to make sense. But I chucked it up to the author taking some storytelling liberties to make a good book. Then it became mildly entertaining. BUT WTF.
There was no need for a rape scene in this book. Wickham was already established as a sleezy, no good gentleman. WTF. WHAT THE HELL. There's also a 2nd implied rape scene and a 28 yo man fondling what might be teenager. Why? Why didn't you just write your own book with original characters? UGH.
I would admit there were some nice moments but they were few and far in between.
