I dropped to part time student status and I got lots and lots of free time. One of my friends tells me to read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. She says that I will understand exactly how girls think after reading this book.

Is this true?

Mark Twain once said "The only thing more useless than a library with no books, is a library filled with books by Jane Austen."

he was right.

it's sort of like... living the female mind instead of learning about it

if you can come to terms with understanding how that works, then you might have a slightly better sense of things

Admittedly they're probably the best written romance novels, but no amount of reading will ever reveal the secret of girls!

It's like the answer to the ultimate question in Douglas Adams' universe. If anybody every finds out both the question and the answer, the universe will adapt and the answer will change. Either that or there will be total mollecular collapse, ending all life as we know it.

Some questions aren't meant to be answered.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

I approve of that quote, haha. That's so good.
EDIT: And Twain might just be one of my favorite authors now.

It will help you understand one type of girl. I don't personally find that type of girl attractive, but I did watch the movie version with one of them who was a friend. Save your time unless you see the good in everything. It's not a guy movie.

I disagree. I read the book, and I can tell you that the mode of thinking by female at Austin's time is considered outdated in today's standards.

The man who figured out women, laughed himself to death before he could tell anyone.

Don't worry about it.

... I work in a Library, and Jane Austin is basically the halmark of old, conservative style, superfically socially fixated trash of the time... thats considered a classic now.

I would recommend reading some non fiction. Learn about Survival, or Science, or Economics >.<, or History (Howard Zinn).

When reading fiction, I prefer very modern, well structured writers, so that I can learn to read faster. Reading ancient Shakespear or something for the turn of the 19th century isn't exactly going to boost your reading ability, youll just lumber through it. I'd reccomend anything 1950's or later and prefferably 1980's or later. Dean Koontz is one of my favorites, very well written and easy, you can eat one up in 1 sitting.

Of course there are the modern classics like 1984 and Brave New World, of course everyone will recommend. GL HF

It's a waste of time if you aren't female. The fact that it's considered great makes me sick to my stomach. But if you ask a girl if she likes Pride and Prejudice... if she's read it, chances are the answer is yes. This is mind boggling to me.
