Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
4.0

What a delightful book! The end especially is just... genuinely fizzy and sparkly and lovely. Kind of upset with the monologues that are described but I get that it does kind of work... we don't know the precise words and that is good in its own way. Huge book for me personally (true love can surpass being annoying and standoffish). The little gestures towards love (she only smiles, I laugh; Bingley making a pipeline to sit next to Jane, going on long walks, the aching sureness that Elizabeth has) are a delight.
