In Chapter 8 of Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet spends the evening at Netherfield with Mr. Bingley, his sisters, and Mr. Darcy. Mr. Bingley thinks many women are accomplished, while Mr. Darcy believes only a few women are, highlighting the importance of intelligence and grace. Miss Bingley tries to flatter Darcy by agreeing with him and putting Elizabeth down, but Darcy defends Elizabeth.

In Chapter 7 of Pride and Prejudice, the focus shifts to the youngest Bennet daughters, Kitty and Lydia, who are excited about the soldiers stationed in Meryton. Mrs. Bennet's sister, Mrs. Philips, is introduced; she lives in Meryton and provides an opportunity for the Bennet girls to interact with the officers. Additionally, Mr. Denny, one of the officers, is introduced when he visits Meryton.

In Chapter 6, the social interactions between the Bennet family and their neighbors continue. Elizabeth Bennet and Charlotte Lucas discuss Jane Bennet's growing affection for Mr. Bingley. Meanwhile, Mr. Darcy starts to notice Elizabeth's charms, despite his initial prejudice.

In Chapter 5, Bennet’s neighbors, the Lucas’s, are talking with the Bennets, and they talk about Bingley and Mr. Darcy and Jane Bennet.

In Chapter 4, It is established that Jane, the eldest daughter, is of great character and never speaks ill of anyone she meets or knows. Elizabeth is established to be the opposite of that, she’s quick to judge and cynical, but she’s playful and witty.

Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy are good friends despite their myriad differences. Bingley is respectful and kind, while Darcy is (very much) less so.

In Chapter 3, the ball is considered a “smashing” success, Mr. Bingley danced with Jane two times rather than once, like the other bachelorettes. Elizabeth had to sit out two dances because Mr. Bingley’s friend, Mr. Darcy was rude and was basically calling everyone “too below his station” to dance with, except Jane.

In Chapter 2, The Father, Mr. Bennet, is talking with his wife and daughters about Mr. Bingley. Lydia and Mr. Bingley will dance first at the next ball.

Had to stop reading to get ready for work, but i cant wait for more of the read!!

In chapter 1, Mr. Bennett and his wife wants to marry their daughters to a rich fellow. The mom of “Lizzy”, is worried that she won’t stand much of as a chance as her other sisters: Jane and Lydia, the pretty and funny sister, respectively.

Pretty good!! I’m really invested and I can’t wait to read more!!

Chapter 8: AW NOO THATS SO SAD. NO MORE CARE OF MAGICAL CREATURES. I FEEL SO BAD FOR HAGRIDDD

Chapter 7:
Wow. Malfoy is evil. And i agree with Harry: i don’t know if i like or dislike slughorn.

Chapter 6: Omg. I love the contrast in Hermione’s street smart skills vs Ron’s. I can’t wait til book 7.

Chapter 5: OWLs! I love how realistic Harry’s grades are, like i expected to get what he got. Little mad how Herminone is upset over one grade, like just because you got an E, doesn’t discourage your 8 other O’s.

Also loved Fluer calling Harry “‘arry” nice touch, and obviously Rowling did her research on French Accents and their own language. Also. I love the idea of Fluer and Bill. Also. I love Fluer.

Chapter 4: Oo, new character! I’ve heard some things about Slughorn’s (i don’t remember what) character, i feel he’s important to this book’s plot. I also do like how Dumbledore is almost all-knowing, like, okay!! could-be-ravenclaw-if-he-wanted-to.

Chapter 3: Kinda corny dialogue, but it had good narrating and description!

Chapter 2: Snape is surely faking being evil, right??

Also i love how narcissa loves draco and will go against the Dark Lord’s wishes to know he’ll be okay.

Chapter 1:
Nice. Muggles can learn about magic but the wizards are the ones who seem to keep their powers secret. Although, they don’t completely conceal their secrecy.
