i find no point in rating a book that’s as iconic and as old as this one, but just know you can’t out do the doer!!!!

In general, the language was pretty hard to comprehend. If I hadn't seen the movie prior to reading I would have had no idea what was going on half the time, but you get a new appreciation for the movie after reading the book. Took me a while to get through because of the difficult language. Not the best book to read if you're looking for an easy read or are just getting started in reading classics. Maybe I missed a few details but the whole relationship part of the story between Lizzy and Darcy happened in like the last 75-ish pages so a lot of the book seemed just like filler.

Rosamund Pike is an excellent narrator! She brings so much to this story.

The Annotated Pride and Prejudice is absolutely the best way to read P&P. More than doubling the size of the original novel, it includes maps, explanation of terminology that was common in the day but not now, context relevant to the historical time period and culture, and more. It adds so much character to a book already brimming with character and made me appreciate even more just how brilliant of an author Jane Austen was.

Excuse me while I'm off to buy all the annotated versions of JA's books.
