Sydney's First Impression Journal



            As I began to read the book “Pride and Prejudice”, I had an idea of what it was about. It’s basically a typical love story between two people. Usually I don’t enjoy reading but this novel caught my eye and kept me reading. The author, Jane Austen has developed great characteristics to easily catch people’s eyes.

            At the beginning of the book, the parents of five daughters, Mr. And Mrs. Bennett try to find a wealthy husband. The mother of the five finds a young man named Mr. Bingsley who is fortunate and rich. Mr. Bennett doesn’t really like what his wife is doing. Elizabeth, who is one of the daughters, is liked the most by their father. She’s the type to not care about things. Meanwhile, her sisters, Lydia and Jane were god looking and smart. Jane and Lydia are liked most by their mother.

            The mother of Mr. Bingsley had also wanted to find a wife for her son. I noticed back then, arranged marriages were “in”. Arranged marriages aren’t very good, in my opinion. When this sort of thing happens, you don’t get to know the spouse as much.and I feel like there’s no love in the relationship.

            From what I have read, I do enjoy this book. I’ll continue to finish the book because of the way Jane Austen has written it. The storyline has already caught my attention.
