Mr. Darcy bleibt zum Frühstück

The book's playful take on Austen's world is so unique. I'm curious whether this came from a love of Austen or a desire to modernize her themes.

Sometimes chick lit can feel light, but this one had some genuine emotional moments too. Did the humor enhance or detract from the romantic tension for others?

There are subtle nods to Austen's works, but I wonder what guided the choice of which themes or scenes to modernize.
