One of the cheapest homeless shelters in Victorian London charged four pennies to sleep in a coffin. Which was... still better than sleeping upright against a rope? — Jordan / Lynn

Fresh Review
HARK! I HAVE FINISHED.

This was also my first time thoroughly annotating a book, so I've scribbled and written and highlighted it til my heart was content. I think before I start I should say that I was first exposed to P&P via the 2005 movie first, then the 1995 tv series in high school, with a few sprinklings of plays peppered throughout. That I've seen the productions first have definitely influenced my opinion of the book.

I feel as if....everyone here kind of knows P&P, but if you haven't read the book and want to and don't want the finer details of things spoiled, then here's my spoil-free review:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I really fucking adored this book. It was a bit harder to get through due to the language that Austen uses, but I still read it and really loved the characters, and the relationships between one another. On more than one occasion, I fell asleep thinking more about the characters and their lives. I think the Bennet family was absolutely outrageous, even moreso than I realized, and my view of them/the characters has definitely changed in a slight but significant way, so much so that I'm excited to re-watch the media productions and see them in a new light (I kind of already have, and I have THOUGHTS — more on that after my book review.)
