      has anyone read pride and prejudice or jane eyre. I love love love the movies, but don't know if I'd like reading the books. I love dystopian and the easy reading of them, so I'm not sure if I'd enjoy these like I do dystopian. so I figured if any of y'all love dystopian and enjoy reading those books I would too. :) thanks

      I love Jane Eyre, personally. I guess it would depend if you like dystopian more for the world building or the personal development in dystopian circumstances. Because if you like the characters developing into better or stronger people, then you will like those books. With world building, it would be hit or miss.
    
      I also really like dystopian, and I loved Jane Eyre, but hated reading Pride and Prejudice. I say try the first 20 pages or so of each and decide if you want to go on from there.
    
      I've just decided that I should read more classics so I've added these to my reading list after avoiding them for so long. I generally don't like books set in the past, do well see how it goes!
