P&P 2/19



Alex Krall

For someone that claimed he kept things close to the vest, Wickham certainly let everybody know about the way Darcy treats him.


Lizzy talks up romance a lot and being in love, but when Wickham starts flirting with the other girl she’s quick to make the excuse that she must not have really loved him since she doesn’t care.

Why does Lizzy keep the part about Mr. Bingley out of her telling of Darcy’s side of the story to Jane (specifically that he didn’t tell Bingley when Jane was in London)?


Chapter 45, it’s crazy how Lizzy’s rejections of Darcy have caused him to completely flip sides and say that Lizzy is one of the most attractive females he’s ever known.

For someone that’s supposed to be a good Christian, Mr. Collins is a total jerk when Lyida runs off, even congratulating himself on not marrying Lizzy and saying they’re all ruined.

Why does Lizzy seem to regret telling Mr. Darcy about Lydia and Wickham?  Because of her being embarrassed of her family and wanting Darcy to like her?

Embarrassing as Mrs. Bennet might be, why do all the daughters act like she’s useless when she always seems to get the job done (i.e.  getting Jane and Bingley alone and engaged)?
