niby jest obiektywnie dobra więc powinna mieć według mojej skali co najmniej 3, ale nie ma takiej opcji, zmieniam zdanie

I really wasn't sure what to think when I started this. Reading the book took a lot of effort, but listening to the audiobook was wonderful. I really enjoyed Pride and Prejudice, and I hadn't expected to enjoy it as much as I did! I loved the banter, and anytime they talked about libraries or books it was wonderful.

I can't believe I have never read this book before- it is now one of my favorites. I read it on the trip back from Ghana- and I only brought it with me because it was small enough to fit in my purse.

This book has all the elements that I love in good fiction. Austen plays with language as an artistic musician plays the notes on a piano. The characters are interesting and beautifully written- I can relate to more than one of the sisters, and I can see certain members of my family in some of the other Bennet family members (not telling which ones). I learned a good deal about the period and setting. And yes, I'm a sucker for a well-written love story. Now I want to read more!

I did read this back in high school and the movie is just a favorite of mine so I thought I would read it in my 20’s and I loved it just as much as the first time! Again I’m gonna read this in the future and see if I like it better or worse. A classic, literally.

Romances Eternos 1/53

Sim, subscrever impulsivamente a uma coleção que vai comer uma parte significativa das minhas economias do próximo ano e meio foi "insensato" e "irresponsável", mas os vintes são para isto! Para além disso, esta coleção completa vai ser a coisa mais próxima que terei de um enxoval. This is MY moment.

Estou imensamente satisfeita com a minha releitura de Orgulho e Preconceito. É redundante dizer que Jane Austen era um génio, que nunca houve um casal mais cativante, blá blá, mas... A Jane Austen foi um génio... E nunca houve um casal mais fofinho do que os Darcies...

Com uma mulher tão convicta e FANTÁSTICA nos seus roasts e sarcasmo, e um homem com uma capacidade de auto-análise e introspeção tão desenvolvida... Folks, a minha bissexualidade virou bissexual.

Uma trope muito famosa na literatura de hoje é a Enemies to Lovers. Como é que, em duzentos anos, ninguém consegue fazer frente à Lizzie e ao Darcy?

Há que perceber que o que faz este enredo tão poderoso e cativante não é apenas a tensão romântica entre os dois enquanto trocam boquinhas e comentários sarcásticos (embora esta faça parte do seu apelo), mas a capacidade que ambos têm de admitir os seus erros iniciais e de mostrarem que são capazes de crescer emocionalmente e de comunicarem de forma eficaz. Um homem que muda os seus modos quando é rejeitado e lhe chamam à atenção quanto ao seu comportamento inaceitável? Girl... Eu também casava, good for Eliza.

Com catorze anos, embora já fosse espertinha, não tinha percebido completamente o quão BOM este livro é. Não tinha maturidade. Agora sim sou capaz de o apreciar. Não consegui parar de o ler, e fiz uma das diretas mais divertidas da minha vida [e já fiz bastantes, obrigada insónias].

NO ONE ELSE DOES IT LIKE THEM CHANGE MY MIND! E VIVERAM FELIZES PARA SEMPRE!

I understand why people love this book however I don't think I was the target audience and therefore just found it boring and pretentious.
