 "I must learn to be content with being happier than I deserve." 
 I am so disappointed in my disappointment. I have anticipated reading Pride & Prejudice ever since I started reading full-length novels. It seemed that through my reading I was always held at length; disconnected from the novel, the plot, the characters and most of the book's contents. I never, really, looked forward to reading which is evident from the length at which it took me to complete it; 3 weeks! My average reading pace is a book a week so my displeasure at reading a single novel for that length of time is discouraging. I, however, am relieved to have read and finished such a historically-renowned novel in which it is said that everyone has to have read. 
 In my time reading, I was earnestly awaiting a love for this novel which, ultimately, never came. I will recognise the last 50 pages as being the most entertaining of the novel and in no way do I regret reading Pride & Prejudice as I have abolished the then-perpetual craving to read it.
