Kerstin | 636 comments We’ll be reading Pride & Prejudice over a six week period. This will translate into roughly 50 – 70 pages per week. Depending on the edition you have, you may see different ways of listing the chapters, either divided into three volumes or numbered 1 – 61 (in parenthesis in the schedule below). Since the volume segments were intended by the author, we’ll follow those.

7 - 13 April: Week 1: Vol. I, I – XII (1 – 12)
14 - 20 April: Week 2: Vol. I, XIII – XXIII (13 – 23)
21 - 27 April: Week 3:Vol. II, I – X (24 – 33)
28 April – 4 May: Week 4: Vol. II, XI – XIX (34 – 42)
5 - 11 May: Week 5: Vol. III, I – X (43 – 52)
12 - 18 May: Week 6: Vol. III, XI – XIX, (53 – 61); book as a whole

Chris | 480 comments Over the years I have found that I can't quite keep up with the reading schedules but enjoy following the comments. I have seen many TV and movie iterations of the story but have always wanted to read the book. I've read Persuasion, which I loved, Sense & Sensibility (very good) and Northanger Abbey - meh.
