A review by a_writer_guy
Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes
3.0
Thank the lord for audiobooks. That's all I can say.
Well, I can say more, and I will, but still, this was ridiculously long and boring in most parts. The overall tone of the book was perfectly humorous, but it just dragged on forever. I found it interesting how everything about Don Quixote that lasts in popular culture is the adventure of the windmills when it only lasted about a page or so. It was so insignificant that I was actually surprised and wondered how it stood out among so many other hilarious misadventures.
It was a good book, and it's easy to see why it's a classic that has stood the test of time. I couldn't give it more than three stars though because it was just so long and just so boring. It was too imaginative and fantastic to dislike in anyway though.
