3.0

This story is based on Jane Austen's novel,  however, it doesn't hold up to the original. The story chooses to focus on some of the least likable characters from P&P and it doesn't even allow the characters to develop. The story tries to add another layer to the original story, but it ultimately fails and so reading it feels like a waste of time.
