Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

This is one of my all-time favorite books.  I love Jane Austen's wit and her clever writing, and this book is her masterpiece.  I can read it over and over again, which is very rare for me.  (I'm usually a one and done kind of person.)  It tells the story of Elizabeth Bennett and her four sisters and their search for love and/or marriage in Regency England.  Elizabeth is imminently likeable and her family is very amusing.  Mr. Darcy, the hero, is the epitome of the "strong and silent" type as well as being tall, dark, and handsome.  It is also a fairly quick read.  It is definitely worth the time.
