Finally finished the book, and I totally change my mind about Elizabeth
In the BBC version, I previously said her and Wickham were so gossipy it was incredibly irritating, but in the book, I find her behaviour much less begetting of someone who delights in dramatics, and more so of someone who is reacting normally to being told of someone's supposed moral failings.
I really do identify with her much more now.
I must say.... The only thing I won't forgive her for, is occasionally giving an allowance to Lydia and Wickham. I also don't really forgive Darcy for endeavoring to help with Wickham's career either :p
