Jane Austen

Fin.

Jane Austen's grammar and spelling may be incredibly tedious to read, but she can definitely write a good novel. The ending to this fabulous novel made it one of my all-time favourites. With most of the Bennet sisters off and married everything is happy and it was just a perfect ending. This novel was one of the most confusing i have ever read though, with Austen only calling the men by their last names, i was frequently confused as to whom she was talking about. And having two men i the same room with the same name was just annoying. Although her words and style of writing were confusing, it was still a great book, that will remain with me forever.

Chapters 30-40

Now that the novel is actually really interesting and suspenseful in a sense, I couldn't put it down. I never left the house without it. Jane and Mr. Bennet, Lizzy and Mr Darcy, Lydia and Mr. Wickham. So much romance and drama all in one family at once. This novel is quite boring for the most part, but the last 100 pages are absolutely irresistable. This novel has definitely picked up.

Chapters 13-25

After a lot of dancing, meeting, getting angry, marriage proposals, cancelling the marriage proposals and some vacations, the novel actually begins to get interesting. Lizzy meets Mr. Darcy and immediately finds him an irritating and disagreeable man, but somehow finds herself drawn to him. I could immediately tell that they were going to end up together, every stereotypical romance novel - girl meets boy, girls hates boy, boy loves girl's feistiness, boy and girl fall in love. Very obvious. Jane and Mr. Bennet though, that spin I did not see coming. They were instantly attracted to eachother and I assumed that they would just marry within the week, but his family getting involved was something I hadn't expected at all! After some more balls, some moping around, some travel and some bland discussions, the book starts to get even more interesting.

Chapters 1-10

The novel begins by telling the reader something about the universe, very stereotypical of a girly romance novel; but thankfully it was more interesting than a typical girl novel. We are first introduced to the Bennet family, the main characters. They are discussing over breakfast the new man in town, a very agreeable match for any woman, rich and handsome; Mr. Bennet. Not much happens throughout the novel in the first several chapters other than introductory writings, some dancing and some very small plot developments. The beginning of this novel definitely does not grab the readers attention, the strange way of spelling, grammar and speaking makes it hard work to read through until the story actually picks up, when a book is that boring and hard to read it's hard to force yourself to. Thankfully, the novel picks up the pace about halfway through.
