I'd rather poke out my eyeballs with a fork and eat them than re-read that tosh 'Pride and Prejudice' - or any of her stuff, for htat matter.

I finished it -

but I still didn't like it. I'd stop if I were you and read something else instead. Life is too short to be bored by mediocre literature when you could just re-read "Pride And Prejudice"!!!
