I am normally not one for classic novels, but Pride and Prejudice was something else! Elizabeth Bennet, known as "Lizzy" or "Eliza" does not wish to get married. She knows what she wants for a man and has her own standards. The Bennet family meet many men, many who end up marrying one of the 6 Bennet girls. Refusing to proposals many times, Lizzy is still grounded and marry when she finds the right man and does what she pleases. So when Lizzy meets Mr. Darcy, a selfish and inconsiderate man that always seems to want to be around Lizzy, Lizzy shuts him out. She describes him as "selfish" and only "self considerate" and "horrible man". But Lizzy finds something else about him. Something different than other men. A nagging Mrs. Bennet thinks this might be the last chance for Lizzy to marry. Will Mr. Darcy be the one? Or will he be another refused proposal? A lovely classic novel with a feminist vibe. Happy reading!
