Bad omen here… this particular sentence structure raises some red flags, doesn’t it ??

“Miss Bingley was praising Derbyshire with all the enthusiasm of a person who had never voluntarily admired anything outside London unless it belonged to him.”

Serious timeline problem !!

Elizabeth leaves Pemberley in a hurry, she is going south by carriage with the Gardiners. Darcy leaves Pemberley hours after them by horse, and yet instead of easily catching with with them on the road, it’s three days AFTER Elizabeth has already arrived to Longbourn (explicitly, Lizzy says it’s been a week since Pemberley!) and he is not arrived yet — bonkers!

This “story” is one never-ending timeloop on which Miss Bingley tries to manage Georgiana, Georgiana is pained by it, Darcy notices, there is some subtle rebellion, Miss Bingley is too-subtly put in her place, Darcy ponders about how he should have noticed this and prevented it… and then the exact same thing happens all over again without any plot advancement !!

Too forward by far !!

“I believe,” she said while scanning titles, “that this room alone might persuade many women to marry.”

Watching Lydia at Pemberley interacting with Georgiana is entertaining, even endearing. But the clever repartee, besides being formulaic, hides a parade of puzzling open-ended subplots…

What was Bingley’s reaction meetinf the Bennet sisters at Pemberly? Did Miss Bingley acknowledge in any way visiting the Gardiners’ home in London? Why Bingley only laughs at Lydia but doesn’t ask about the Bennets back home?

Nearly every dialogue consists of a three piece structure >>

1) a simple statement
2) an answering denial or negative formula
3) an ammended reply incorporating the denial, now in positive form, often metaphoric or abstract

It’s formumaic and tiresome. This is why readers suspect so many authora use AI — more so when used for filler scenes !
