FINISHED: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Not ashamed to say it, I loved this book. I thought Lizzie was beautifully written and totally relatable, and I also loved getting Darcy's point of view occasionally, rather than him just being this aloof mystery as men can often be presented as in romance novels.
Mrs Bennet drove me up the wall, as did Lydia, but it only added to how much I adored Lizzie and Jane.

The writing had its moments where I struggled to understand it, and I had to use the dictionary a couple of times, but it all added to the feel I suppose.

Just... I haven't enjoyed a classic book like this since I read Dracula years ago.

8/10
