At last—Lizzy Bennet, Jane Austen's best-loved heroine, tells the story of Pride and Prejudice in her own words.

When Lizzy's father gives her a diary, she fancies she will use it to write a novel as her real life is exceedingly dull.  Then the handsome Mr. Bingley moves into nearby Netherfield Park and suddenly life is every bit as thrilling as a novel.  Who will he dance with at the Meryton ball? Who is his haughty friend? And will Lizzy ever receive a marriage proposal? Oh la, as Lizzy might say—you will have to read her dairy to find out.
