REVIEW: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Film Adaptation: Pride and Prejudice (2005)

Pride and Prejudice is a Romance Novel by Jane Austen and the second of six complete novels the author published. This book is the embodiment of ‘never judge a book by its cover’ because both Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy judge each other on birth and first impressions, which, with a great deal of miscommunication and great verbal sparring, makes for an exciting read. Elizabeth is determined to dislike Mr. Darcy for as many reasons as she can find without actually seeking the truth from him, and Mr. Darcy is determined not to fall so entirely without hope for Elizabeth by sticking his two cents in where they do not belong and trying his hardest to be indifferent towards her. It is certainly up for debate as to who is more proud and who is more prejudiced.
