Pride by Ibi Zoboi
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This has to be the best P&P retelling I've read yet.

A couple of days ago I read that P&P was meant to be more of an anti-romance. Usually someone's a jerk and she finds another dude who doesn't like him and they run off together. That's not what happened. The other dude ends up being the jerk and the first guy's the hunk. That's exactly what happened in this novel.

At the beginning Zuri was put off by Darius and was getting it with Warren instead. I was totally shipping Zuri and Warren for a hot minute.

While staying true to the source material, it managed to make it feel fresh, like I was reading a new book. Almost, I still knew how it was going to end.
