Moby-Dick: Or, the Whale by Herman Melville
3.0
adventurous challenging informative reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Really enjoyed this but also it was a massive slog to get through. Melville clearly has way too much he wants to tell people about whaling and it gets in the way of the plot. Glad I read it but definitely will not read again
