katieo314 's review for:
Hard Times
by Charles Dickens
Erm, this one I marked "read" and probably shouldn't have, but I definitely didn't want it on my 'to-read' list, so. I skimmed parts. I was depressed. I read SparkNotes before my exam. I got an A.
It's probably not as bad as I think it is. It's just that book among my English major friends. It's packaged with the later Norton Anthologies, so everyone has to read it, because everyone has to take British Literature post-1700, and it's everybody's last survey class, and you say the words "Hard Times" out loud, and everyone just groans. No vehement condemnation, but a table full of groans says plenty.
