Book Review : Pride and Prejudice

People say that first impression is the last impression, but is it so. Pride and prejudice is a very fine example that says the first impression should never be your last impression.

Pride and Prejudice  has every element which are present in our lives and each one is described wonderfully. It’s not like the regular kind of story where a girl meets a guy, first they fight then fall in love its actually how the girl brings in the changes in the guy and how she breaks all the prejudices which she created earlier, to be with the person she truly deserved.
