Review Quotes: Stuck Up and Stupid is an absolute delight. A charming take on Pride and Prejudice that brings a romance, a place, and, most importantly, a family to life. Jane Austen fans, your new favorite read awaits!
--Rachael Lippincott, coauthor of the #1 New York Times bestseller Five Feet Apart

Upbeat prose injects an air of dreaminess into depictions of the Australian coast setting. Hollywood drama and an enemies-to-lovers romance add a splash of tension to the novel's summery vibes.
--Publishers Weekly

Pride and Prejudice meets celebrity romance in this contemporary work set in rural Australia and Hollywood. . . A frothy and fun retelling.
--Kirkus Reviews

Hollywood clashes with suburbia in this modern-day retelling of Pride and Prejudice in which a resident of an Australian island is swept up into the world of a closed-off movie star. . . Jane Austen fans might appreciate the book for its faithful adherence to the plot of the author's classic hit, with the setting and commentary on Hollywood serving as a clever distinction.

Adorable . . . A great read.
