I gave up in the second chapter, as this "blind" Elizabeth didn't seem to have any real impairment, and she was so smug and insufferable. I also noticed that she seemed to have already read P&P as she knew things that were from P&P. It sounds like her reaction to Wickham is another example of her having already read P&P!
Oh! But you missed Elizabeth and Anne travelling to OHIO ! [ no joke ]

Before I returned it to KU, and based on some comments in reviews, I went back to the story and jumped to the last couple of chapters. I was thinking, "She's in OHIO?? With Anne???" Good grief. Among other things, it's an example of how her blindness never seemed to have any impact on her life.
The story is so absolutely FARFETCHED that there was one episode in America when Lizzy had an accident and struck her head, so I thought “of course she will regain some of her sight now! It will be a miracle!”
But no, the only miracle that happened there was that Lizzy had a deep soul-searching awakening about taking up the piano again, still blind though :>

LOL! He obviously put more effort into the writing experiment part of the story (shifting narrative) than into the plot. Awful.
