gretchface85 's review for:

The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas

---

I’ve always wanted to read this but but could never get past how huge it is. I picked it for my book club with Uncle Mike and we read it as a slow and steady, reading just ten pages a day and texting each day with any commentary. This was the perfect way for me to tackle this novel! I love this book. It’s nice to read a classic that is actually good and worth its reputation. Now I can’t wait to go back and rewatch the movie version from like 20ish years ago that I loved in high school to compare and contrast!
