The most frustrating story I have suffered through. The author telling you exact moments that could have solved all the problems every step of the way just made it all the more frustrating. I’m not soon to forget the story though so I mean that’s gotta say something.

Lots of twists and turns, drama, and heartache. Easy to see why it's a classic. I also love how Thomas Hardy skirts over climactic scenes and makes you read between the lines.
