5.0

I'm so glad that I finally read this classic! It was funny, sweet, emotional, and romantic, just as it is always described. It was delightful to watch the various relationships develop and to see the characters grow up in their own, unique way. Everyone had a distinct voice, which was extremely refreshing. The family dynamic was very believable, with equal parts love and conflict. And of course, it was wonderful to watch Lizzy and Darcy go from enemies to friends to lovers. 

P.S. The 2005 adaptation is extremely faithful to the novel!
