great narrator, possibly even better than Rosamund Pike and Juliet Stevenson. another 4-stars reread, however, as once again I couldn't conceive why Darcy and Bingley became friends in the first place, considering how different they are. additionally, the telling-not-showing regarding the romance, especially in the portrayal of Darcy, really bothered me this time around. everyone else has more screentime than him, even when my man actively participates in the conversation. so a good fanfic was never more needed.
