PULSE SPRING FLING CONTEST RESULTS
Feb 20th, 2009 | By Alex | Category: Book News, Fandom, Featured ArticlesSimon&Pulse recently held a contest, and they wanted to know your favorite fictional couple, and the winner is?
Oh! And one really interesting thing from the now-closed Pulse Spring Fling contest…
The most popular couple was Bella and Edward, from Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. No surprise there. However, the second most popular couple?
Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.

Good thing they came in first!!!! Cuz if they didnt I would have been mad. But Pride and Prejudice is pretty sweet too!
IIII love the results. though the book of Pride and… bore me to death,
the movie wasnt bad considering
Thats amazin lol 😀 but wat a coincidence that a pair of Jane Austens characters should win second place because her characters get mentioned alot throught all of Stephenies books lol. They are Bella’s favourite books too!!!!!!!! 😀 😛
lmao thats perfect.
and predictable.
Funny, cuz Stephenie relates Edward and Bella to Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth in the stories.
Hah, no surprise there. 😛
Sweet! but no surprise there obviously! LOL! 😛
Go Pride And Prejudice! I’m sorry, but I adore that book and the movie =]
xox
as much as i love edward and bella together…. i love lizzy and darcy more!
I am sorry SM and RP but my heart has always belonged to Mr. Darcy (the one played by Colin Firth of course!!!) ::
:::::::::takes deep breath and lets out a sigh::::::::::
I am really likeing these results!!!! Of course Bell and Edward won. Yay go Pride and Prejudice. That’s another one of my favorite books by Jane Austen and favorite movies. I love the one with Collin Firth but also the one with Kiera Knightley.
I sort of wish Edward and Bella hadn’t been in first place.
Go P & P!!! I absolutely adore Bella & Edward, but Pride & Prejudice has always been my fave book of all time. Lizzie’s wit is scathing and the interplay between her and Darcy is magical. The Colin Firth movie version is the best.
no doubt that they were not first
absolutely!!! of course 😀 i couldnt expect more haha
but, Mr. Darcy was way more fickle than Edward. I love Jane Austens writing and I absolutly love that Elizabeth Bennet an Mr. Darcy were second! You gotta love the classics… until you fall asleep. zzzzzZZZZZ. LOL, jk, i never fell asleep reading that.
Did you know that Mr. Darcy’s first name is Fitzwilliam… hawt. jk
Edward= Mr. Darcy*DUH!* Everyone knowns that!
