Rating:  Summary: An interesting read but not literature Review: I had to read this book as part of my summer reading for senior AP English. It is a very funny, interesting story and any reader has to give Jane Austen credit for satirical view of the world around her. But, come on. Great Literature? It is a fluff book that leads the reader to no great revelations about their life or enviroment. To me, a novel is only as great as the thoughts it provoked. My "great thoughts" coming out of the novel were only "I'm glad Darcy and Elizabeth fell in love" and "Gee, I hate Lydia". Don't misunderstand me. I like the book and recommend it. It's just that there are so many more deep, meaningful things to read. Thank you.
Rating:  Summary: This book was amazing.."just talk to him!"..you want to say. Review: You can see from all angles in this book...and then you just want to tell them to express their feelings!! The end is so amazing..how it all comes together, when you almost lose hope it all pulls together. A wonderful book!
Rating:  Summary: Wonderfully written Review: A very well written work. Pride and Prejudice is a novel you would want to read again and again. I love the idea of romantic notions--- love letters, unexpected meetings, and 'false hateful feelings.' It's a must have... Jane Austen is one of a kind!!!
Rating:  Summary: This is a review of Pride and Prejudice Review: I love this book. It's such a good read. You will absolutely love the characters, I guarantee it. Elizabeth is such a refreshing heroine, not simpery or weak or stupid but smart and funny and all that stuff. The book itself is hilarious. The funniest scene is the one where Mr. Collins proposes to Elizabeth. It's priceless. Anyway, if you've read Emma and hated it, DO NOT let that keep you from reading this, because they are totally different and this one is worlds better. I highly highly reccommend it.
Rating:  Summary: Very entertaining. It shows how high society behaved. Review: I had a lot of fun reading Pride and Prejudice. That is the kind of novel made mostly for intertainment, but it certainly inform us about how people behaved in the old times and what were life perspectives for a girl. Jane Austin was also a master in capturing and describing peoples mind.
Rating:  Summary: Best Book in the World~ Review: I must say that Pride and Prejudice is my absolutely favorite book. I have worn out two copies of the BBC/A&E version taped off my t.v. during the broadcasts. I bought the "official" video tapes recently and was estatic to find that this version had 30+ new scenes or parts of scenes. You have one very happy P & P fan.
Rating:  Summary: A MUST SEE MOVIE!!! Review: The Pride and Prejudice movie is the best movie along with the book I've ver read and seen. I did'nt think that the movie would stay so close to the dialogue and story. I think Jennifer Ehle is the just the perfect Elizabeth[ pretty, intelligent and witty] and I cant imajine that she is anyone else and Colin Firth- Mr Darcy is everything I'd imajined him to be. I loved all the characters including Mr Collins and have seen this movie 4 times. I was so upset when it finished I wish Jane Austen had written a sequal. If U haven't seen the movie go to the video store and rent it now!! You'll love it.
Rating:  Summary: It was excellent, brilliant. The best book i've ever read. Review: Pride and Prejudice would have to be the best book i've ever read in my whole entire life. I just totally fell in love with Elizabeth and Mr Darcy and all the other characters Jane, Kitty, Mr and Mrs Bennet. I think Elizabeth is the perfect role model for all women. I loved her because she's witty, stubborn, polite yet intelligent and gentle, I mean what a woman! I've read the book 7 times and cant get enough of it.The BBC adaptation of the book was brilliant Jennifer Ehle was the perfect Elizabeth and Colin Firth was the perfect Mr Darcy, both were exactly how I'd imagined the characters to be like. I would recommend this book to everyone of all ages because although it was written in the 1813 it's characters are truly hip. It is just the coolest book, I LUVE IT!.
Rating:  Summary: My all-time favorite Review: Jane Austen is wonderful. Pride and Prejudice was a joy to read. I had the worst nights' sleep this past week because I truly couldn't put it down.
Rating:  Summary: Jane Austen's best Review: This has to be my favorite Austen book, and my favorite heroine, ever. Elizabeth Bennett is intelligent, witty, and strong, the kind of woman that all women should aspire to be like. The fact that her counterpart, Mr. Darcy, values all of these qualities in her makes it one of the most romantic, yet unassuming stories ever told. The BBC video production is also excellent, and really captures the essence of the book.
