I'm barely 100 pages into this book, and I'm already unbelievably bored. Every single character is embarrassingly rich aristocrat whose life is and endless string of ball dances, card games and walks around the countryside. The main character feels the need to stick her nose in everyone business, and her love interest is a pompous twat who regards anyone who's even slightly less rich than he as vermin. And although I don't know the ending, it's painfully obvious that they'll end up together, the main reason being that they can't stand each other.

If it weren't for Mr. Bennet's dry wit, I would've given up on reading it altogether.

It's true that all the characters basically do the same thing. That's because they are part of the same social class, but pay attention to how they unwittingly reveal their nature in the most banal of conversations.
