Pride and Prejudice

Elizabeth Bennet has better things to do than fall for the richest, rudest man in the county. Mr. Darcy has better things to do than notice a woman with no fortune and an embarrassing family. Naturally, neither of them gets what they expect — least of all themselves.

Jane Austen's most beloved novel is a masterclass in getting someone completely, hilariously wrong before getting them completely right. Sharp dialogue, unforgettable heroine, and a slow-burn romance that has shaped two centuries of storytelling: this is the book that invented the modern rom-com, three hundred years early.
