A review by lilprecious
The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas

5.0

My second reading of this book. I read it the first time nearly 14 years ago while pregnant with my third child. This time around I read it aloud to my middle son (age 16) as part of his English literature and I enjoyed it SO much more. I don't know if that is because I made sure to read the Robin Buss translation, or if I just wasn't in the right head space to read it when I was pregnant. At any rate, my son and I absolutely LOVED it, and we're very much looking forward to watching the movie adaptation.
