Pride and Prejudice (Puffin in Bloom) Hardcover – February 13, 2024

This is my first time reading the book. I have seen one of the movies a few times. I read some and listened to the audiobook narrated by Rosamund Pike, which I highly recommend.I thoroughly enjoyed the witty dialogue and memorable characters. I loved that it was Elizabeth’s words that changed Darcy’s actions. As my husband said when we were discussing the book, it is aptly named Pride and Prejudice. (What more can I say about such a great classic that has multiple film and television adaptations?)One more quote because it’s P&P and everyone has their favorite quotes 😍“You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.

Great book! A must read for any young adult.

so incredibly cute! and a lot bigger than expected!

Great story! The book itself also came in good condition. It’s somewhat small though but that’s on me for never checking the size.

Cover art is lovely, book itself doesn’t have a high quality feel when you hold it. Pages are a bit thin, and for a hardcover feels flimsy.

I am a Pride and Prejudice/Jane Austen fan and this is a really pretty copy to decorate with. I recommend if you want a “girly” pretty copy to sit in your house! May I also recommend actually reading it as well.

Exactamente cómo esperaba, su tamaño es perfecto para leer y andar trayendo ya que no es pesado. La ilustración de la portada y contraportada es preciosa y no he encontrado errores o problemas en la edición. Recomiendo muchísimo, además fue una entrega rápida y llegó protegido y en perfectas condiciones.
