I've always known the story of Pride and Prejudice after having watched the 2005 film a million times over and knowing all of the 1995 version's lines by heart. Because of this, I never saw a reason why I should read the book. After finishing it though, I can say that even though both adaptations are amazing, the book is better like always. The only criticisms of the book is that Austen has a style of sometimes telling and not showing that I didn't really like, and also that Mr. Collins' mouth was not duck-tapped.
