Having watched the movie before the read, the story was known to me, but still, Austen's writing came as a delight! What a lovely, artistically crafted, beautifully penned way of writing novels. A classic for a reason! I loveddddd how the characters were so clearly drawn, and although the lead given the main focus, the supporting weren't ignored either, and had their fair share of display, character development, and story, enough to form a very vivid picture in the mind of the reader. 
My favourite parts in the book, reading wise, were when events encompassing days or weeks were described in a few lines or paragraphs, very very craftfully by the author. Lovely use of words, great choice of sentences. Reading this was a delight. ❤️
