Fanny Price 76-100 Books

102. The Darcy Monologues ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
103. A Bevy of Suitors ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
104. The Diary: A Pride and Prejudice Variation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ but somehow my rating and review for Kate's Of The Beholder variation is tied to it.
105. Mrs Bennet's Christmas: A Pride and Prejudice Variation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
106. True Love Never Fails... ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️sooo much redundancy many will be annoyed that there are so many repeated things like the teasing explained dozens of times, and the statement of Mr. Darcy would do something, then he would do it, and then it would be talked about at least once in detail that it was written when done, so I get why many did not rate higher, but it is original enough to warrant that 4th star!
107. Lizzie Bennet's Choice for the imagination behind the tale ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
108. Mr. Darcy, the Beast: a Pride and Prejudice variation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
