Elizabeth's prejudiced even after hearing from Miss & Mr. Bingley and her sister, she still thinks Mr. Wickham is respectable and great.

I love Mr. Bennet's sense of humor. He is so funny. Even in tough times like the rejection of Mr. Collins, he still ends up cracking a joke. He is definitely one of my favorite characters!

This part shows a great example of their personalities. I think Elizabeth is right though; Miss Bingley is not so sincere herself, and Jane always does not catch/see the flaws in people.

In many ways, Jane and Elizabeth act more mature than their mother. They were much more composed about acknowledging the marriage between Charlotte Lucas and Mr. Collins than their mother.

Mr. Collins put Eliza in a bad position; she can't really deny his request, although she really wants to spend the night with Wickham. Mr. Collins seems like a good-natured and intentioned man, but he has wrong timing.

I feel bad for Elizabeth because she was very much looking forward to spending the evening with Wickham but she is very unreasonable to think it is Mr. Darcy's fault. Wickham didn't show up because he didn't want him too; not because Darcy forbade him.

Before, Elizabeth wanted to start the conversations, but now it is Darcy. Elizabeth was looking forward to getting to know Wickham, but instead she is getting to know Darcy. I think that's kind of ironic.

Even though Elizabeth claims to be trying to get to know Darcy's character, she's actually just confirming her suspicions.

The first time Miss Bingley could be of some help, and Elizabeth is ignoring it. She's already got her opinions of every one and Bingley has her own intentions but this time she is actually right.

Elizabeth keeps bringing Darcy back into her conversation and her mind. She can't stop thinking about him, just like he can't stop thinking about her.

I was really wondering how Elizabeth would deny Mr. Collins proposal. But to me it felt like Elizabeth's refusal was kind. Mr. Collins, however, obviously did not get the hint.

If I was Elizabeth, I would have gotten mad! But she holds her composed behavior and denies him again and again in the politest way she can, Mr. Collins is just making things worse for himself.

I found it funny, yet appropriate, that Mrs. Bennet would be satisfied if her daughter had protested with intentions of encouraging Mr. Collins.
After Mr. Collins admitted that maybe him and Elizabeth were not meant to be together, I started to think that maybe he isn't that crazy after all. At least he gets it though that Elizabeth doesn't want to marry him.

The girls were smart not to tell Mrs. Bennet about Miss Darcy because 1. Mrs. Bennet would probably overreact and 2. Her marriage hopes with Mr. Collins just got crushed, so telling her about Bingley would make her devastated.

Okay, so just because Elizabeth doesn't like Mr. Collins, it doesn't mean Charlotte shouldn't! Elizabeth is prejudiced by her own opinions and therefore cannot imagine a simpleton like Mr. Collins with one of her friends.

Jane Austen's writing - an event happens, then everyone's reactions to it - reminds me of Indian Soap Operas.
