Fantastic. My perception is undoubtedly coloured by the conservative historical reality this book was written in, however despite that I found it subversive and enjoyable to read. Elizabeth is abundantly fun to listen to judge other people.
Additionally, while it does technically suit Mrs Bennet's character, the narrator's voice for her was unbearably agitated and shrill, which made it hard to listen to at points.
