Synopsis
The Bennet’s family had five beautiful daughters and the oldest one, Jane, fell in love with a rich man called Mr. Bingley. They both first met in a party and they fell in love at first sight. Mr. Bingley also had a friend called Mr. Darcy who was more handsome and richer but he was really arrogant. Elizabeth overheard him saying bad things about her ,so she really disliked him. After some time Jane and Charles Bingley became closer but Bingley’s sister, Caroline Bingley, didn’t like her. One day Caroline invited her to eat dinner with her, but while she stayed at their house, she got ill. So Elizabeth went to visit her and Caroline let her stay even though she didn’t like her. They ate dinner together with Caroline, Charles and Darcy. Elizabeth realised that Charles really liked her and that Caroline was really attached to Darcy, but Darcy didn’t like her. She also realised that Darcy was only paying attention to her but she didn’t like him. After she was fine, they went home. The next day a man called Mr. Collins came to the Bennets house, because he wanted to marry one of them. At first he wanted to marry Jane, but, since she wasn’t free, he changed to Elizabeth. But she refused, so he went to ask Elizabeth’s best friend Charlotte and she agreed. Elizabeth wasn’t happy with the decision her best friend made but she couldn’t do anything about it. One day the sisters were walking in town and they bumped into an officer called Wichman. He went on a walk with Elizabeth and while they were talking, he said bad things about Darcy and Elizabeth was really angry. He was way worse than she thought. He also told her that she couldn’t tell it to anyone. After some time passed, the Bingleys moved to London. Jane couldn’t believe what was happening and she got really sad. Elizabeth knew they moved because she knew that Darcy was going to get engaged with Lady Catherine’s daughter. They moved to London with her so that his brother, Mr. Bingley, would get closer to her. This way Caroline would get more chances to be with Darcy. Jane received a letter from Caroline saying that Georgiana and Charles would get engaged soon. Jane burst in tears as she was reading the letter. She really loved Charles and she couldn’t believe what was happening. But one day Mrs. Gardiner invited Jane to visit London and so she did. Nothing special happened there but she met Caroline and when she spoke with her, Jane realised that Caroline didn’t like her. They stopped being friends. Elizabeth went to visit Lady Catherine and she stayed there for a few days, but she realised that every day Darcy would come to visit. She was really uncomfortable because she didn’t like him. One day Darcy went to her room and, suddenly, proposed to Elizabeth. She didn’t like him so she rejected him coldly. After that rejection, Darcy stopped coming to visit her. He wrote a letter about the truth ,for example: that Wickham wasn’t a good person or that he actually helped her family with their finances because they were poor. She then felt really embarrassed for what she said and she started getting feeling for him, but she didn’t think he liked her because she had rejected him. One day, her parents sent her a postcard and told her that one of the youngest, Lydia, ran away to Scotland to marry Mr.Wickham. Everyone went to search them but couldn’t find them. Until one day, Mr. Darcy found them. They weren’t married yet, but they would marry. Everyone was glad that nothing happened. On the wedding, everyone came, even Darcy, and Elizabeth was surprised because she knew that Darcy didn’t like Wickham. But she was really nervous, so she didn’t say anything. One day news came :Charles Bingley returned. Jane didn’t know if she was happy or sad, but, after some time, they quickly fell in love again. Charles proposed to Jane and jane agreed. Some weeks after their engagement, an unexpected visitor came: Darcy’s aunt. She came to tell Elizabeth that she couldn’t marry Darcy. Elizabeth was upset . But after some days, Darcy came to visit Elizabeth and they went for a walk. Darcy proposed to Elizabeth for the second time and this time Elizabeth accepted it. They announced the family that they were engaged. At first they were surprised but seeing how happy Elizabeth was, everyone congratulated them. Both sisters had their wedding ceremony on the same day. Then Elizabeth and Darcy moved to where Darcy’s sister lived and Jane and Charles Bingley moved somewhere close to them, so they could see each other. Life was very good for the Bennet family now.
Personal Opinion
I really like this book because I like how Darcy may look arrogant but he is a really good person. And that the men don’t care if Jane, Elizabeth and Lydia are poor. My favorite part was when Darcy proposed to Elizabeth for the second time and that he succeeded.
