Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
reviewed by Miranda
If you want to enjoy your precious free time, read Pride and Prejudice. It is one of the most wonderful books I have ever read in my life. It is so full of surprises: love, hate, and compassion between two people of about 24-27 years of age called Darcy and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was a very pretty and smooth-talking girl, but full of pride and hate for men. At the beginning, Mr. Darcy loves her but he also thinks he is better than she is. Though there were so many troubles, difficulties and temptations for Darcy, he still stand firm in his love for Elizabeth. He later becames more humble and so gains her friendship and love, and they both became one. I think readers should read this book because it tells you that no matter the circumstances surrounding you in life, what will be yours will still be yours no matter what happens. You have to calm yourself down, and become humble, to truly love another. I enjoyed reading this book because it was so interesting. I would recommend it to both boys and girls of high school age.
