    The videos and visuals are fabulous and the full text included is a great bonus. This is great for high school English. I would love to see more novels like this!
  • A concept 'book' that over reaches itself

    Let's be clear. This is not a review about the novel "Pride and Prejudice." It's a review about the iBook with the attendant videos, notes, illustrations and quizzes. This extra content list should give you a clue that the audience for this iBook is fourteen year olds, who want a quick study of the novel for a test at school. All adults - forget this iBook. The notes and videos are repetitive and present information more easily and certainly more entertainingly gathered from just reading the novel. One of Austen's great strengths as an author was her drawing of her characters. It is impossible to read "Pride and Prejudice" without becoming more than familiar with each character, in fact, the reader is drawn completely into the people and their relationships most intimately. Why then, in this iBook presentation, do we need to be given acrostics to remember the names of the characters? The addition of multi-media content, just because it's possible, doesn't always add value. It this case it subtracts. Read the novel. Watch one of the many movies made from it. You'll enjoy either much more.

    Really? You need 3MGs of space open to download? Would love this book, but that's too much space.

    This is one of my favorite books, and as a middle schooler, that's saying a lot. I have many editions of this book, and I loved the beginning introduction! However, this book took quite a while to download, which was extraordinarily frustrating! On another note, the plot of this book is fantastic. To dumb down the classic literature text, it is a true story of drama, love, prejudice, rudeness, brattiness, and true love. I just love the characters so much! If you are into gossip, drama, or anything along those lines,this is the book for you!
  • Takes too long to download.

    I tried downloading the Book, but it takes way too long to download. I have a new iPad with over 100 gigs of storage and it still takes too long.

    If you are even the tiniest bit OCD, don't download this! It won't fully download and you can't delete it!!! Driving me crazy! Jane Austen is my favorite but this is really annoying.
