    Hating him isn't enough, I need to kill the fictional character George Wickham in real life with my own two hands.

    Beautifully written, gut wrenchingly painful, all that is bittersweet. As a lover of Austen and Pride & Prejudice I loved how this book hurt my feelings by showing the darker sides of my most beloved comfort characters. I cannot recommend this gritty and honest look at all the pain and labor that goes on just out of view in every celebrated regency romance.

    I didn't know I could dislike him more than I did, but here it is. Truly insightful take on what a threat a man like him was to working class women
