Pride and Prescience

ACTUAL BOOK COMMENTARY HERE!
Okay, okay, I'll admit this is a long time coming...so I've decided to attempt to make this less stressful for me, and more regular for me.
Which means a new schedule! Every other week, I'll attempt to have a book read; if not, I'll fill in with an author rant. I'll probably continue every Wednesday with my Fanfic/original stuff, because those are short blogs. However, these author/book blogs are really long.
Also, I'll move back to Sunday. I know I've been late these past two weeks, and I'm really sorry.

But Pride and Prescience is a novel that is the first in the Mr. & Mrs. Darcy mystery series. It follows about the first two-three weeks into the life of the newly-wedded Mr. & Mrs. Darcy, in which they get trapped into a mystery that soon turns to a life or death situation. Think Nick & Nora in the Thin Man movies(which i also highly recommend). It deals with matters such as Magic vs. Reality, Societal Expectations, and disagreements in relationships.
The plot revolves around Caroline Bingley, recently married to an American Mr. Parrish, a week after the Darcys and the Bingley's wedding. However, the night of her wedding, the Darcys, returning from a play, find Mrs. Parrish wandering the streets in a very disreputable area, apparently unknowing to her surroundings. The mystery thickens when, the next morning, Caroline is on a ride and her horse is spooked by apparently nothing at all. However, the plot finally starts to boil when a day later, the Darcys are called to the Parrish townhouse, where it is discovered that Caroline has attempted to commit suicide. (If you are confused by these events, imagine how the Darcy's must feel.) It is decided that the entire party should remove to Netherfield. This party consists of the Darcys, the Bingleys, the Parrishs, the Hursts(Mr. Bingleys' other sister and her husband) and Professor Randolph. The Professor studies the supernatural involving archeology finds; charms and hexes and such. However, he has a friend in America who deals with the psychological workings of the mind.
However, once at Netherfield, the accidents keep on occurring--and the danger keeps on increasing. It starts with a fatal carriage accident, heightens to a raging fire, and escalates once more to murder. All the while, suspicion shifts from one person to the next. When the dice are finally standing still, you won't believe who's been playing the game.
I LOVE THIS BOOK! I've read it before, and often. I own, suprisingly, out of the series every single one except this--And this one has to be one of my favorites. Here's a link to the page that she has on her website dealing with the series!
I really do recommend this book. I've recommended it before! It's light, and very funny. The language and manners of the time is very in base(I didn't notice anything off, but that may have just been me. If you're a real history nerd (NOT A BAD THING) about the London/England of Austen's time, read it anyway and tell me what you think!) The relationship between the newly married couple is wonderful!
However, if you're more interested in the Romance Novel instead of the Mystery Novel, I can suggest one author for Mr. & Mrs. Darcy series.
I dabble. In genres.
So! Read this novel, and continue on! I'm considering a bunch of different ideas, so COMMENT(I am ordering you with my mind) to pick one of these.
If you don't comment, I'll feel sad.
SO!
A.) Author crush=Neil Gaiman!
2.) I want the Author Rant back. NOW.
III.) What was that about a romance novel?
Blue.) Go with the tried and the true-Douglass Adams!
