Love is in the air when five sisters discover that a wealthy and eligible bachelor is suddenly within reach. But it is his friend, the haughty Mr. Darcy, who becomes smitten. Unfortunately for him, the object of his affection is not so easily swayed.

Enchanting story and performance

Great performance of a classic novel. Although I've read it may times the narration made it fun and new again.

Loved this!

Been so long since I read this book - was thrilled with the narration. Excellent job!

Excellent reader!

I listened to this book on my walks since has been many years ago that I read it. I thoroughly enjoyed the way the narrator read the story. I felt like I had gone back in time to when it was written and could picture it all so well.

A Very Enjoyable Revisiting of a Classic

Since originally reading Pride and Prejudice a year and a half ago I had wanted to revisit the book but loathed trying to push myself through all the dense language. So, when I got my prime membership the first thing I saw in benefits was free audiobooks and that got me to search to see if P and P was on the list. Lo and behold it was, and here we are. The performance was great overall, however the recording quality was not the best or most consistent throughout. I can largely excuse that though since I technically got this for free and thoroughly enjoyed it anyways. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to revisit the classic but doesn't want the struggle of reading though the dense language. Jane Austen's writing is a delight to revisit all over again in this new formfactor!

Really awesome 👍

I love listening to this audio book. I was so entertained by it. I imagine the characters in it and the voice of the reader was very pleasant to listen to I would listen to it again. Great job. Recommend it very much.
