Study Questions: Topics discussed include why this is one of the most enduring love stories of all time, how Austen created the bond between Lizzy and Darcy, how elements of the book aged poorly, the fact that Jane Austen was a wealthy white woman, our favorite/least favorite parts of the book, our favorite/least favorite characters, and the title.
Funniest Quote: "I admire all my three son-in-laws highly. Wickham, perhaps, is my favorite, but I think I shall like your husband quite as well as Jane's."
Questions moving forward: Will Keira or Colin win? How will this translate on screen?
Who wins the BOOK? Elizabeth Bennet!
