There's little point in reviewing the quality of this book, it is evident to everyone that this book has stood the test of time for good reason.
I was going into the story fairly unaware of the plot, other than it was a love story between two people who disliked each other at first glance. My only experience of the story before the novel was the spoof adaption Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, which I recommend. The book surpassed my enjoyment of the spoof by far.
For anyone who is intimidated by classics I would like to advise you that I was similarly nervous. I have only read children's classics due to how difficult I found reading classics. I have read the first page of Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility each around 20 times, unable to understand what was going on each time. I listened to the book on audiobook which massively improved my ability to enjoy and understand the novel. I enjoyed my experience with the audiobook so much that I went on to read Jane Eyre, a book I've been dying to read for years on audio and loved it.
I highly recommend picking up the book on audio.
