Pride & Prejudice Ch 7-10

"I do not like to boast of my own child, but to be sure, Jane- one does not often see anybody better looking. It is what everybody says." I'm amazed at Mrs. Bennett's vanity when it comes to her daughters. Considering their social standing, she is in no position to be bragging as much as she does. I especially feel bad for Jane, who doesn't even know that her mother is perhaps ruining her chances at a marriage to Bingley.
