Character developments and writing style.

how long it took for Elizabeth to finally be engaged to Mr. Darcy-made me ignore everything else in my life just to be able to find out the ending without cheating

Think about the influence of pride as well as prejudice in my life and Elizabeth's daring character.

Happy knowing the long-awaited ending was much satisfied at the end of the book.

has style and humor

it has flair, romance, and tension to torture its readers into immense enjoyment.

This book met every bit of my expectations as a highly recommended book in my high school, only with one complaint-The author makes use of many, many pronouns, which make it often difficult for the reader to decipher who is doing what, etc, etc. The style of the writer was very unusual to me, because the author constantly used "the former", "the latter" and others like them in her book. I had to really force my brain into keeping track of the subject of the paragraph, which was very stimulating. It was very different from reading a book and letting my brain fall asleep. From wanting to find out the ending, I was unable to put down the book for hours.
The dialogues were also so different from the modern books I've read-I had to constantly translate to myself what the elegant words were referring to, or speaking of, etc etc.

This is a great book to challenge yourself with. I recommend it with two thumbs way up! :)
