### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Unkind Emma
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2018*

This may be inspired by Jane Austen's Emma, but it seems to me that Smith doesn't like her a bit. The woman he writes isn't one I'd want to spend time with.  She's slightly redeemed at the end but she's done so many cruel things that it's really too late. I didn't want to finish it, but I always finish what I'm reading even if, as in this case, it's punishing. This isn't like reading Smith's other books, at least it wasn't for me. I'm glad it's over and I can go on to something else.

    Don't bother
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2017*

Just hated this. I'm a Victorian lit professor and love Abigail Reynolds' pride and prejudice variations. This modern retellinv of Emma was totally absent of Mr. Knightly and Emma was unbearable. No charm at all.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not as great as I’d hoped it would be
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2019*

I am a huge fan of this author, especially his number one ladies Detective agency series. The writing in this modern retelling was beautifully crafted, but the character development was not complete in my opinion. The ending wrapped up rather quick and I just  didn’t feel the chemistry between Emma and her ultimate love
