Gilbert and Louis Rule the Universe: First Impressions

Gilbert and Louis Rule the Universe: First Impressions, a contemporary version of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, chronicles the adventures of two best friends as they navigate the world of seventh grade.

The story follows two thirteen year-old girls as they deal with friendship, love, embarrassing relatives and, ultimately, find out that first impressions aren’t always what they seem. Gilbert and Louis deals with that delicate time when girls are coming of age, figuring out what they want out of life, and forming the basis of who they are going to become.

Gilbert and Louis Rule the Universe is a middle-grade chick-lit book geared towards middle schoolers, precocious elementary school students, and any adult who wants to take a trip down memory lane.
