@@sillygo0oser Tbh I loved the romance in Pride and Prejudice (like an introvert with pride and an extrovert who is prejudiced? AND the two end up together because the introvert lets go of his pride and the extrovert's prejudices melt away when she sees him change for the better?) BUT I don't love when booktok recommends books that take the storyline from Pride and Prejudice and doesn't add any twist other than making it a really bad fanfic- (Also I get what you mean about victorian rich ppl, there's a TON of content with them as MCs. After a while it can get annoying.)
@@yishmoosa1234 Pride and Prejudice represents both Elizabeth and Darcy. Both of them have pride, both of them have prejudice. And it's through overcoming these vices that their story comes together. Darcy looks down upon the Bennets (prejudice), Elizabeth is too proud to do a lot of things actually. Pride and prejudice go hand in hand, I believe. You cannot have have prejudice without pride. You cannot have pride without prejudice. In most cases anyway.
In Not an expert on pride and prejudice, but I always assumed prejudice refers to the people (including Elisabeth) that see Darcy as a rude and bad person, even tho he doesn’t do much more evil than not conforming to social Norms (not dancing and not enjoying small talk, preferring to be alone and read or write, etc). At least in my eyes, the only thing that wasn’t great of him was stopping jade from getting to Marry whateverhisnameis, and that was only out of protectiveness to his friend, who he doesn’t want to end up in a loveless marriage. While the pride also refers to these people, who think they’re so much better than him just because they’re mean and rude under the covers and not openly, or Darcy and his ‚im so deep and emo no one understands me anyways(derogatory)‘ attitude. Again not an expert but that’s how I understood it
@@Charles-r9f6o Predjudice refers to Darcy who judges Lizzy for her unconventional family and Pride is about Lizzy as she first refuses him because of the remarks he made about her and her family, from what I understood
I always thought it referred to both. Both are prejudiced against the other because of their pride, but learn to see through those prejudices as they learn humility.
Wearing a hockey jersey under a leather jacket sounds so uncomfortable. Like jerseys are purposely big and loose because they’re meant to be worn over equipment. So I can only imagine how the farbric is bunching up under the heavy leather jacket like bruh
Every day I question my own writing abilities, and every day RUclips puts a video on my feed to remind me that I could write absolute dog water and still find an audience.
still stuck on the fucking yoongi dedication... wild anyway absolutely wild!!! idk if i should be annoyed or amused that this author thought it wise to credit ms austen's famous title to a himbo?? i cannot prove it but deep in my bones ik this author started with this book after watching a kdrama with similar timetravel mechanism
Clicked so fast. I am here for this. Edit: I am dying. Absolutely perishing. Heathcliff??? Originated the idea of a situationship??? I have no words, only pain
idk there's a penny reid book where the mmc is named cletus winston and idk if it gets less sexy than that, except maybe his brother roscoe, who ofc also has his own book
@@sari9645 right!!! i read the whole series during the peak of my het romance era; i thought it was bad when we started out with duane, and then it just kept getting worse. i mean, JETHRO?
sorry this is genuinely genius. like this combines every single weird thing normie booktok is obsessed with (hockey, pride and prejudice, cartoon covers, dumb mmc names, taylor swift references, etc) into one fever dream of a book, then dedicates it to MIN FUCKING YOONGI. i absolutely think this is satire but even if it's not i'm still obsessed with this. like the author is not fucking around. i cant even make fun of this. i want to study straight women authors.
Ok, confession time: I actually really like time travel and isekai (I know, I know, go ahead and throw your tomatoes) and my threshold for what I can enjoy is embarrassingly low - I like some real hot garbage is what I’m saying. But even I couldn’t manage to enjoy this one, except in a “love to hate it” kind of way. Everybody’s so creative!!
The way this came up in my feed and I thought the title of the video was fr and i spent real money on the book bc i trusted you, random youtube person, and i finished the first chapter and i had to come back to check if you were mentally okay🥰
Wait, the main character falls into a lake/pond and gets magically transported back in time? Why does this sound EXACTLY like the beginning of the kdrama Moon Lovers?😭
i know i could never read this book because even having you describe the plot point involving the revolutionary made me want to pull my hair out cause when is this supposed to be set Jane Austen was born the same year the revolutionary war began how old are these characters supposed to be what is happening
u are soooo fucking funny omg i loved this review. for some reason i didn’t pick up the sarcasm in the title and genuinlt thought u we’re gonna call this the best thing ever. loved and subscribed.
I saw this videos thumbnail on my recommended feed went and bought the book without watching this and absolutely loved it. I didn’t realise you were gunna absolutely dump on the book
No bc if the author wasn’t such good and not a cringey millennial this would’ve been so fun had it leaned into the satire and didn’t take itself seriously but it took did take itself seriously and made it into a Jane Austen fanfiction so it lost all it’s potential
Like I enjoyed it because it was horribly bad and cringey like twilight when I feel like I should’ve enjoyed because it was an unserious comedy like the scary movie franchise yk
I don’t even mind the Jane Austen aspect IF you lean into the comedy portion of it. maybe I’m just not into romance but imagine a feel-good comedy about a lesbian in the 1800s who pressure to marry, ending up marrying a 21st century frat boy hockey player and instead of becoming lovers, they form a close bond and start feeling like best friends. you could even leave in room for sad parts, such as him having to leave or telling her he has cancer.
4:50 this is the first video of yours I’ve ever seen, but I genuinely gasped in delight when you said this so I will be sticking around :) there are no incorrect opinions, but Mary Shelley being the best isn’t an opinion it’s a fact

It's a myth that people were super unclean back then. hygene was actually super important to them. they washed daily. bernadette banner has a great video on this. also, corsets weren't invented yet in 1812...they wore short or long stays, very soft and flexible support garments. in the case of short stays, they didn't even come down to the waist. also they couldn't be tightlaced bc the hand sewn eyelets couldn't hand the strain. metal grommets hadn't been invented yet.

i haven't even heard the entire explanation of the ley line thingy but- let me just say: i can already sense that this is one of the worst examples of worldbuilding in fiction.
the thing is it could be a good book there was funny phrases and comments but the novel literary washed away because of the very very one dimension characters and I mean all characters and laim plot twists it was bad and don't get me started with the long unnecessary paragraphs and chapters with no reason

she hosts a kdrama podcast with her friends, and you're right that some kdramas were inspirations for this book
The Yoongi dedication is so utterly baffling 😭
Utter disbelief in Tucker Taylor being the name the author decided on
no because that and they didn’t even make up a fake regency name.
Somehow what shocked me the most was the yoongi dedication 😂
Oh my gods it’s an isaki! Although 50/50 on whether getting hit by the truck is better than losing ur Prius

I read an article the other day encouraging new parents to embrace naming their children "dog names'.
Tucker makes me think of a 'dog name.'
The time travel explanation was half the book
i think 'dicked in the nob' is actually just an american author trying to come up with an english sounding phrase and failing miserably
Sadly I googled it and yeah it’s a real saying nob meaning head so…it’s just being stupid I guess
I think 13 year olds on wattpad could write better then this book
they do, and it’s completely free
the min yoongi dedication took me OUTTTTT
Actually, you're wrong, Tucker Tailor is not the least sexy name. The least sexy name is, in fact, Sterold Flotssbottom.
