"One of the most famous opening lines in English literature, the most compelling of stories, and a host of vivid characters, has won Pride and Prejudice its rightful pride-of-place on bookshelves throughout the world. For Mr Bennet, a quiet life is to be highly commended. For Mrs Bennet, finding eligible husbands for her five daughters is the most important of a mother's duties.

Grand country estates, beautiful women, and eligible young men all play their part in this unforgettable story that has delighted readers for 200 years. A story where comedy, heartache and romance interweave to make Pride and Prejudice one of the most popular and enduring novels in the English language"… (més)

Pretty good adaptation to the classic Jane Austen novel. found the imagery delightful too. ( )

Rating 2.5

This books was very difficult to rate. Thank goodness I have a rating chart that forces me to be critical. Moving on . . .

This is the first graphic novel I've ever read. I must say, I liked it. The graphics didn't wow me (I thought the characters could have been more attractive), but I enjoyed the format. In this particular one, the lines were stripped from the classic novel [b:Pride and Prejudice|1885|Pride and Prejudice|Jane Austen|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1320399351s/1885.jpg|3060926]. I liked that because it felt like I was reading the real thing without it taking hours or having to wade through the fluff. This will not be my last graphic novel.

It was fast paced, which I really liked for the most part. However, I think more time should have been spent showing the relationship build between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, particularly when she was spending time at his house when her sister was ill. I know this was a graphic novel, so it couldn't go into as much depth, but that didn't keep me from wanting it to do so in that portion of the book. Because it didn't, I had no emotional pull toward the characters. I did care about them, but they didn't make me laugh or cry. Much of the emotion I did have probably stemmed from having seeing the movie. The only emotion prevalent and raw was anger.

Mrs. Bennet and Darcy's aunt and Mr. Bingley's sisters annoyed me. They were so stuck up and conceited, or in the case of Mrs. Bennet, unintelligent. She cared more about her children being married off than she cared about them. I wanted to slap her a few times. I liked the other characters. Mr. Bennet made me smile, though I don't remember laughing. (Had I laughed or cryied, this book would be getting a 3.)

The mood of this book was uncomfortable. That's the only was I know how to sum it up. The prejudice made me cringe. The comments made about Elizabeth's beauty and standing (or rather, lack there of) made the book a bit dark, but more so uncomfortable because Elizabeth didn't let it get to her. She was a very strong character. She stood up for herself without sounding bratty or ignorant, and she was able to change her opinions of Mr. Darcy once she was presented with all of the facts. To me, that's what makes a strong character.

My favorite part of the book involved her telling out Mr. Darcy's aunt. That scene alone makes this graphic novel worth a reread. If also has me wanting to read the book it's based on. I'm pretty sure the original will eb able to draw the emotions I was hoping to have while reading this.

Overall, this was a very easy read and a good introduction into the world of graphic novels. If you enjoyed [b:First & Then|23310751|First & Then|Emma Mills|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1426513843s/23310751.jpg|40149265] [bc:First & Then|23310751|First & Then|Emma Mills|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1426513843s/23310751.jpg|40149265], you'll enjoy this.

I LOVED this graphic novel. It is very true to the story and easy to read and follow. The art is appealing. The author presented the entire story briefly but without leaving out anything that made you feel that there was something missing from the story.
My GOODREADS Review: I really liked this. It was my first graphic novel. I have read comics, but not a graphic novel. The author did well, I thought, in condensing a LONG story into a short graphic novel. The story was held intact though it was sort of a "Reader's Digest" version.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the art! ( )
