a similar thing happened to me, I truly didn’t get it at all when I read it at 16, and my experience reading it now was vastly superior

well, considering I’m judging an old book according to my modern judgement, that’s how I’m able to describe how I felt reading it! I understand most of the strangeness comes from the book being from a different period, but still, do you understand what I mean?

oh, I really do like it! and I didn’t say I disliked the book, I liked it a lot. but I live for dramatic moments and when it comes to that, the movie is more appealing to my tastes

my problem isn’t with excessive descriptions, I wish she had spent more time showing the readers through dialogue and character building how Elizabeth is spirited and smart, how Jane is easy-going and benevolent, how Darcy is serious but also shy and socially awkward, how Bingley is animated and good-humored, instead of simply (mostly) telling us those things. I wish she described more how Elizabeth physically felt, how her blood boiled at Darcy’s proposal etc, how people and places looked and such
