A review by doroteadora
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
5.0
4.5*
Considering the time period this was written in, it truly is a masterpiece and I don't think that for every classic.
Although there is not much plot, characters are so nicely developed and distinct from each other that it's a joy to read. I particularly adored Elizabeth and Mr. Bennet. I loved the atmosphere in the book and how cosy it was.
The only thing I didn't like is that there was more telling than showing in some important parts where I'd like to see some dialogue.
Other than that, if you are reading it like a classic that it is, it really meets and even outstands high expectations. Can't wait to finally watch some adaptations.
