I pretty much enjoyed Unleashing Mr. Darcy but the sequel was a total let down.
I felt Elizabeth to be ungrateful and did not know about how the real business world works. Also, if your relatives and family wanted to have a big wedding let them have it and you could plan a simple, small wedding party afterwards with your friends on a different date. How can you cut down the number of guest list when you own a big business and have a large number of friends and relatives that you miss or have not seen them for a long time.
Although, I understand Aunt Violet could be pushy and preferred elegance where as Elizabeth likes simple things, Aunt Violet had put all her life into bringing up both Darcy, her husband-to-be and his little sister so Elizabeth should not act ungrateful and immature towards her. She could have respected Violet's ideas and let her take the lead over the wedding. Elizabeth can have a small wedding party on a different day so why complain when she is not the one who is paying?!
Also, I'm totally surprised to see Elizabeth telling Darcy what to do about his work. She has no idea how to lead an honest and hard working life. I mean if you don't work hard you will lose your job one day and might have to live on the streets. I don't think she is a good role model for students. As a few people have reviewed, I wished Darcy had dumped her before the wedding and met somebody who is more caring, considerate and knew more about the REAL WORLD. (well, they could make another TV film with a title "Ending a marriage with Elizabeth." and write the script from the guy's point of view.)
I wish I had not seen this sequel as the first one was quite good.
