My Rating: 6 out of 5 stars!
My Comments: This book doesn't really need a review, I mean it's a classic! It is one of the best books I've ever read. It is a perfect social comedy. The dialogue is both believable, natural, and yet ten million times more interesting, witty and articulate than anything real people say. The characters are so well-drawn, interesting, and deep that you get drawn into the story from the first page. Elizabeth and Fitz are both smart, witty, self-confident and good. Austen could not have written them better. This one has made it onto my list of All Time Favorite novels and is truly one of the classics that lives up to its billing. So if you love romance and are a fan of classic literature (like me 😳) then turn off your PC/laptops and go read it NOW!
P.S If you want you can watch the movies/Tv shows based on this novel beforehand. I did it that way and it actually helped me to follow the timeline of the book better.
