Not all the characters are timeless, but the plot is inevitable.
Welcome to the Kvothe of Monte Cristo, where in my case you both can’t root for or against the main character, but you enjoy the journey along the way. I’m incredibly impressed how interested I was all the way through, though books like this really spoil shorter books and movies in general where I wonder why I don’t know each character intimately.
It was also great fun how the sentence syntax of the book influenced how I arranged words in my mind for a bit.

So I didn’t actually finish this one.. I always feel pretty guilty about not finishing books (especially a classic like this) but this year I want to enjoy more rather than stressing about the details and putting more subtle pressures on myself. The first half of this was really enjoyable, but it becomes a book about *mild spoilers* Dantes integrating himself into Paris society and politics, told through the view of uninteresting characters along with more and more (and more) characters that I really just don’t care for or about. Maybe I sound like a Gen Z kid with tik tok brain, but if it were any shorter I could probably bare it. I just do not have the motivation to trudge through 400 more pages. Sorry Dumas!
