Pride and Prejudice experts please: Which modern sequel?

I've just visited Lyme Park and have seen a few P&P inspired novels at the gift shop and wondered whether to read any of them or will they would ruin the original for me.

Has anyone read "Mr Darcy's Diary"? I believe that there are two of the same name. I looked up on Amazon and there are dozens of so called sequels but they all seem to have very mixed reviews. Opinions please especially if you consider yourself an Austen aficionado.

It's late now so I won't be posting anymore tonight but will return around 9ish tomorrow evening when the dcs are asleep.

Surely Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is what you're looking for.

(No, I've not read it.)

Do NOT read 'Pemberley' by Emma Tennant - not good (IMHO, of course) turns Elizabeth into a wimp. Hated it.

Course, that's just my opinion
