This book is so lovely!!! If you like outlander, but want less violence, less life-threatening drama, but all the romance and also make it sapphic, this is 100% for you. This retelling/inspired-by pride and prejudice novel has everything a queer girl could want; yearning, tension, a dash of miscommunication, and a whole lot of sapphic tenderness. The characters work very well within the narrative, and are very sympathetic. I thoroughly enjoyed this read, it’s super quick and hits all the marks it sets out to accomplish.

SAPPHIC AND SWOONWORTH!

Feels like a fun mix of Pride and Prejudice meets Back to the Future!

This ya romance novel gave me both the feeling of reading an old romance novel with a perfect contemporary flare. Lippincott has such a wonderful voice that I devour all her novels. With beautiful messages about figuring our yourself and love, Pride and Prejudice and Pittsburgh is not one to miss out on.
