A classic we all grow up knowing about. I loved it so much! The characters are complex, the writing style is amazing (witty, shady and funny).

5.0

I was looking through the comments on this book, and lots of people were saying that the Old English was hard for them. 

A main reason I understood this book was because I watched the movie first. (The best version to watch to understand is the 1995 version with Colin Firth as Darcy) 

I know it’s unliked to watch the movie first, this movie follows so closely to the plot and actually uses lots of the lines from the book. I understood the book a lot more and was more able to appreciate its level of literary.  

Always love a Jane Austen novel, and this is no different.
