This book was absolutely delicious. I was eating up the revenge plot like a beautiful feast. Every detail was so perfectly calculated and I was on the edge of my seat for most of the story. I loved the feeling of being confused by how a certain character or action fits into the plot only to have it completely pay off a few chapters later. I also loved how the Count treated all of these characters like pawns in his grand plan, even the ones that I genuinely liked. Albert was the only character that I was going to be sad to let go for the Count’s plan to work, but I absolutely loved his character development and how his arc ended. I was so satisfied with how everything turned out and everyone absolutely got what was coming to them one way or another (except maybe Edward but like fuck them kids). Noirtier was THE CHARACTER for me and I can see the influence he has had in other books and movies I’ve read. This may be the longest book I’ve ever read but the action, intrigue, and adventure made the life of Edmund Dantes fly by.

one of the best books i have ever read. it may be around 200 pages, but i dont think they ever weighted on me, it kept me hooked and never let me go.
it made me feels so many emotions — i was feeling dante's planning, his desperation, his force to just keep going.
i loved a lots of things about this book but i want to keep my review short because i can't stress enough how everyone should read it.
it's long and it may be scary to approach, but it flows like a dream and some quotes and descriptions are just so lovely.
it's a book full of twists, events and characters , and honestly its the only book that ever made me cry ! when abbe farina died i was just so sad.
that said, i hope you all will love Dante and this as much as I do !! and, as he would say, wait and hope !

A very long, but very good book. The book read like a movie or television show and kept me interested the entire time. If you've got a lot of time on your hands or are a very fast reader I would recommend this one.
This book has been on my TBR list for almost 30 years. I finally began it, doing so in the Audible version narrated by John Lee. The story is flawless. The writing is flawless. The performance by John Lee was flawless. For such a long book (46 hrs, 1200 pages), it had never a dull moment. Every sentence is unmissable. I thoroughly enjoyed it ND recommend it whole heartedly.
If this book is on your TBR list.... Please read it. It is a gripping, enjoyable, fascinating read.
