I read Price and Prejudice off my phone on the course of several months whenever I had nothing to entertain myself while on lunch at work.
I think the thing that sticks out to me the most was the snark. I was such a fan of all the old-school snarking that several of the characters were tossing around, and Lizzie is such a queen at it. Speaking of Lizzie, I wasn't expecting to like her that much, particularly when I started the book, but she turned out to be a very well-written character, and I thoroughly enjoyed following her story.
This book was awfully slow paced, which shouldn't be a surprise considering the subject matter of it. Your enjoyment of the book would probably depend heavily on how well you handle the "older" language the book is written in. If you're not a fan of reading about rich people complain about each other, this is probably not the book for you.
