I am really enjoying this book. I won’t comment on it from a literary sense. Everyone has already exhausted that area. However, I will say that the kindle version is great except that the text does not always translate in the proper fonts. Every so often the author has emphazied a word and it shows in the Kindle as all upper case. I supposed it was supposed to be italics. A similar situation occurred in the Complete Sherlock Holmes. Certain symbols are not translated properly. The intent was still obvious. I was very reluctant to buy a Kindle at first, but I have used up all the available space in my home for paper books. The Kindle is a joy to read though and it goes very fast.

great book of course for any jane austin fan. this review is more for this kindle edition. i decided to buy the one dollar version after a few chapters because i do not like the repetitive use of dialog in all caps. it makes me imagine too much yelling. granted i do not know whether miss austin wrote it that way or the scribes of this digital book did. i just know i do not like it. if you are like me or unsure just get the sample first.

This is my first Jane Austen novel. It did not dissapoint!! New Years Resolution to read as many of the “classics” as I could. I have been pleasently surprised by this book. It left me wanting more and sad that it was over. Now I can’t wait to read all of Jane Austen’s books.

Since I was a business major in college, I wasn’t made to read a lot of the standard classics that most people have already read. I’m finally starting to make up for lost time.
I loved this book. I have always loved 19th century literature, mostly because I love the societal rules and manners. (The House of Mirth is one of my all-time favorite books.) However, I was a bit surprised that I could be drawn in so much to a romance where no one even kisses. (Especially because some of the paranormal romances I read are practically pornography.) But I couldn’t put this book down and I am now in love with Mr. Darcy like so many other women before me.

This classic Jane Austen novel is one of my all-time favorites and I loved the novel on my Kindle as well. The imagery from the novel book version is just as good in the Kindle version. I recommend this to anyone who hasn’t read it before and has a Kindle too.
