Summary • Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books because I love the dynamic relationship that evolves between Lizzie and Mr. Darcy. • Lizzie generosity for her sister, her self-assured character, and her wit help make her a loveable and unforgettable character. • Mr. Darcy is the epitome of the tall, dark, and handsome brooding man that many male characters have been based upon since Miss Austen created him. His almost unwillingness to see the good in anyone that doesn’t have money at first makes him unlikeable, but as you continue to read and watch him grow, he becomes a very loveable character. • The dynamics between Lizzie and Mr. Darcy cause for great reading. The constant misunderstandings and missed opportunities to love one another makes the reader want to read more.
