Definitely a romance novel about how others opinions can shape your ideas without merit. It is also a great take on how being called out on pride can be a growing opportunity if one sees it that way. Darcy was hurt by Lizzy's rejection but took her complaints to heart and worked on improving himself so that she may enjoy who he has grown to become.

I expected this book to be merely a romance, not having heard much about it despite it's good reputation. What I got was a drama that enticed me to keep reading. I had trouble putting it down, despite the fact that it was somewhat predictable - but I attribute this to it being a classic.
Nothing is as it seems, and the themes of pride and prejudice are expertly interwoven in the plot; stated but not overdone.
Despite the language it's not impossible to understand, and if anything it's interesting and eye opening to read it in such a way.
I am beyond glad I read this book.

He visto la película con Keira Knightley mil veces, sabía perfecto lo que pasaba y aún así lo disfruté como si fuera mi primer acercamiento a esta historia. No creo que se pueda decir mucho más de todo lo que ya está dicho sobre este gran clásico, sólo puedo reconocer que despertó en mi un amor por la literatura de Austen que jamás pensé que experimentaría. Se queda en mi corazón y más porque compartí la lectura con las chicas de mi club de lectura que lo propusieron e hicieron (y siguen haciendo) mi experiencia todavía más mágica.
