	Media	Author	Review
		Guy Lodge Variety	"The stakes are low and the perkiness high in this unconvincing attempt to root 'Persuasion' in a world of champagne and social media."
		Cath Clarke The Guardian	"This updated version of Jane Austen’s final novel is standard romcom fare –minus satire, wit and charm (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Sandie Angulo Chen Common Sense Media	"This flat Austen update is a missed opportunity to bring the author's oldest, most mature heroine to a new generation of viewers"
