A review by carrymey
Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
5.0
Vanity Fair is a jewel of a book. Now many people have said it more eloquently than I ever could, but this book is something else.
I ADORED the authors voice. It was so sarcastic, so funny, so blunt at times.
I ADORED the characters, which were all so flawed and perfectly human. Of course Dobbin was my favorite of the lot.
As for Becky. It was very difficult. I enjoyed how she almost always got her way, how clever she is, how rough. I respect that. But I loathed how she treated people who loved her, namely Rawdon and her son.
This book is an amazing study of characters and highly entertaining.
