Meh….
I really tried to like it. I’ve heard so many great things about this story, but, it bored me to tears :(
underwhelming as fuck

3 stars simply because it’s a classic, and the writing was beautiful.

The first time I tried to read this I wasn't very familiar with the prose style of classics, so I had a hard time getting through it. Around five chapters in, I happened to get a free trial to Audible for a class, so I listened to the audiobook instead of reading it. When my trial ran out I never finished it.

Coming back to it over a year later, I had a much easier time following the story, maybe because of my familiarity with the characters, since that's what usually trips me up in these stories. While I do prefer stories with more amped up drama and tragedy, this is a beautiful and excellently-plotted narrative.

It wasn't a particularly thrilling read, but I think it shines most through its characters. All the characters are really well-developed and their relationships are as well. I especially love the two protagonists for their wit and their stubbornness. Although I wouldn't say this is the funniest classic I've read from this time period, it was an amusing read.

I think this is a book that has a great, gradual build-up and rewarding payoff. Great for people who don't mind a slow read and love a thoughtful story.
