I didn't grow up adoring Mrs. Austen like many others. I found her works in my late teens, and it was then that I fell in love with it.

You can tell that so many other books have taken from Pride and Prejudice. I guess in that way, it will forever live on. Much like Romeo and Juliet.

Was my favorite part the romance? No.

I wouldn't call it romance, more along the lines of pining over someone until they give in. Although, towards the end, Mr. Darcy is quite adorable with his letters and trekking across cities just to see her.

My favorite part was the family Elizabeth was always trying to get away from. And I cant blame her.

Her mom was crazy. Her sisters were love sickened puppets. Her cousin wanted to marry her for goodness sake!

But her father was my favorite. Mr. Bennett told it like it was and I give props to the man!

It took me awhile to get through this one because the language was so tedious. Old English dialect is not something I'm accustomed to. But in the end, it was worth it and I can say that I loved it very much.
