This book is a better DIY manual than any booklet IKEA would give you. There isn't much to can take away from this read other than how to build a camp site and how to use the grammatical first person. English teachers' favourite mantra "show, don't tell" never held true held meaning until finishing this book.
I appreciate the legacy of this novel as a pioneer in literature, hence the two stars; but if I didn't have to read it for a course at university, I probably wouldn't have finished it.

Its difficult to hate on this classic. Its more surprising and idiosyncratic than you would think, and it does work as a manual for living on a tropical desert island. It might be necessary to be one of the books you bring with you if you are stranded as it might just help you survive practically. Crusoe's adventures might seem tame now, but consider he was on that island for 28 years! All the usual caveats about racism and sexism apply here as it was written when novels hadn't even been invented yet. But with that said, its mandatory reading for any book fiend.
