I loved listening to the audiobook narrated by Rosamund Pike.
I don't have much luck with classics however, I could listen to Jane Austen by this narrator anytime.

I could never have lived as a a woman back then. I would have gotten myself into too much trouble with my independant streak and sarcastic wit. HA HA

This book is a guilty pleasure. It's not perfect; Jane Austen has a tendency to overstate her point and her novels always leave the reader juggling at least 20 characters (confusing). But the book is irresistibly romantic.

A true classic. Pride and Prejudice is a story that is often talked about (snippets in movies, versions of movies, etc.). To truly appreciate Pride and Prejudice, one needs to sit down for periods at a time and enjoy the language and theme.

I love this book so much, and this is the first austen's i read, and no one could forget the witty Elizabeth Bennet and the arrogant Mr Darcy of course. They're just perfect for each other. ...more
