nothing like a gigantic, psychological epilogue to a play devoid of romance.

The Secret History
Donna Tartt
Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen
It’s funny how every time I’m annoyed with Mr.Darcy or Elizabeth, the culprits are either his pride or her prejudice. Like what else was I expecting, it’s in the title. On a separate note, this wasn’t called Pride and Prejudice and Second Hand Embarrassment. Can someone please inform certain Bennet individuals about it, I am STRUGGLING here.

lmao not second hand embarrassment. on the other hand the novel was originally supposed to be called first impressions and if anything in my experience there is a lot of embarrassment involved in those 😭
