Review: Imperfect Bliss: A Novel


Imperfect Bliss: A Novel
Imperfect Bliss: A Novel by Susan Fales-Hill

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



I did initially enjoy this book, but as I continued to read on there were some very odd plot twists as well as enresolved conflict and occurrences by the end of the book. This book is billed as a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice, but I found it lackluster, particularly with the dialogue and plot between this book's Elizabeth, Bliss, and Darcy nee' Dario.

The book's main characters Bliss and her three sisters, her daughter, and their parents are involved in the new Bachelorette style reality show starring Bliss' second youngest sister Diana. The show stirs up the feelings that the girls have for their parents as well as what they feel about each other. All this is happening while Bliss ins trying to move on from her divorce and her mother is lamenting her terrible luck of having married only one daughter off only to have her return back home.

I am a fan of classic retellings, so I did enjoy the book, but it wasn't spectacular.
