Me obligaron a leer este tocho en segundo de bachillerato y lo odié, pero hoy he visto a Seventeen cantar "Don Quixote" y he venido a puntuarlo porque en su día no lo hice.
Le doy dos estrellitas solo por los seventeen, vaya.
Esta mini-reseña ha sido un poco kpoper. Perdón.

Satire, Spoof, and Philosophy meet to great effect. A bit long, but fun as a collection of a false history. Like Mel Brooks, Monty Python, and Austin Powers, it becomes very self aware in the final act (maybe even the entire second book, since it had the first book published in the second book).

My mother forced me to read this in Spanish in middle school. I also got quizzed on it. Now, I can say it was worth learning about this literary classic. Thanks mom.

Finally finished the book that never ends. I'm sure someone was adding new chapters to it as I slept. Don Quixote you sure a funny bugger but you don't half go on.

the first half was pretty repetitive but it was genuinely funny and if you ignore the sexism and racism it holds up fairly well considering it was written like 400 years ago. i wouldn’t say this was a life changing book but i really enjoyed it and it was so interesting to see how much of it has influenced other works!
