On the 250th anniversary of Jane Austin, I’ve decided to indulge in reading her classic books. The BBC audiobook was an excellent introduction to her work and her importance in literature.

I give Pride and Prejudice a solid 5/5 because it’s a true classic and the first book I’ve read by this author – definitely not the last. The story is engaging, the characters are well-developed, and the writing style makes it easy and enjoyable to read. Although I didn’t learn a lot of detailed historical information about that era, the book offers a fascinating glimpse into the manners and relationships of the time. Overall, it’s a timeless novel that I highly recommend.

OMG this was a master piece- I can not even fathom how much I enjoyed not only the book but how they used the book to turn it in to one amazing movie! Like help it is way too good. And the thing is I am not even in to stuff like this (Besides the Princes Bride & Secret garden) This was just like wow. The characters are so easy to hate, love, and understand.
