Book+Review

When teenagers are asked to read a novel by Jane Austin, they may feel discouraged by its long, timely, and heard to read content. But this book should not be judged by its cover. __Pride and Prejudice__ is an exciting love story, with loveable characters, dramatic twists, and the sweetest ending you will ever get an opportunity to read about. With patients, it's easy to accomplish reading this book.

The overall plot of this novel was well written and exciting. However, the courtship between Elizabeth Bennet, and Mr. Darcy, is engrossingly readable, and stands out above all. Their dramatic and mysterious encounters leave you second guessing Elizabeth's hatred for Darcy, or smiling to yourself, predicting their romantic fate.

It is easy to become attached to the many characters in this book. The novel paints the picture of a family, and five sisters growing up and struggling to find their individual life paths. Their complexity, morality, and even irksome attitudes keep the story interesting and engaging. Whether your rooting for Jane and Mr. Bingley's fondness of each other, or laughing at Mr. Collins attempts to find a wife, there is always something that will keep you from putting this book down.

Marriage is a major theme in this novel. All the Bennet's are determined to find a husband that can insure them financial stability. But Mrs. Bennet takes this to a whole new level, obsessed with seeing her daughter’s engagement. The mother is annoying and it can be hard to sit through her rants and expectation's for her daughters.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a challenge. To anyone who can sit through the somewhat boring parts, in order to appreciate the exciting ones. Before I read this book, Jane Austin was just another author I could never see myself taking an interest in. But I think everyone should consider reading this awesome book.
