Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
4.0
I love love love Jane Austen.
Although it took me a month to read this book, it was still incredibly good. I always find it hard to get into a Jane Austen book because of all the different characters, but after a while I got used to being introduced to a new character every chapter that it became easier.
I love the love story in this book so much, but I also think there’s much more to this book than just the love story.
Let’s start with the relationship Elizabeth has with her sisters, especially Jane. She loves her sisters more than anything an does everything to protect them from anything bad. She was there for Jane the whole time she was sad.
I also feel like mrs. Bennet is overhated. She loved her daughters and knew that if they weren’t going to get married to an agreeable man, they would be poor and not live in the best conditions. She just wanted them to be happy and healthy.
I have a couple more books from Jane Austen to read and I’m excited for each of them!!

I LOVED Better Than the Movies, but this was kind of disappointing in my opinion. I didn’t really believe in the romance and sometimes I found the main character a bit annoying.
I did really like the concept of the story and the friendships in the book!!
