Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen-361 pages
⭐⭐⭐⭐
I hadn't previously read any of Austen's works, but I had been wanting to read this one. It being our next book for the Book to Movie Club, I finally got the chance to read it. I had previously watched the 2005 film based on the book. One thing I find repulsive now about the setting and time period is the measure of a woman being tied to marrying well (and early). I do like the central romance story between Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. (Fitzwilliam) Darcy, though.Overall, I rather enjoyed reading this and I think the 2005 movie is a good adaptation.
