A wonderful, if slow at times, read. Great to see awful people get what's coming to them alongside a neat little reflection on what kinds of revenge people do and don't deserve.

Wow, wow, wow. I can't believe I put this book off for so long. I'm a big classics fan but I had never thought I'd like Alexandre Dumas. Was I wrong! It took me about 100 pages to get into the story, but once I was there I was sold. It's absolutely fantastic and was an enjoyable read. I was supposed to read only 30 pages a day so I could finish it by the end of February. Most days, I ended up reading way over that because I was so entranced with what was going on. Overall, great classic and I'll revisit it again one day!
