A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

5.0

A really awesome story set to the French Revolution. It's funny, the author in the first half really shows just how awful and oppressive the rich are toward the french peasants, but once the revolution happens, he tries to turn around and make the revolutionaries the villains. Well, that didn't work on me, and I just kept right on rooting for the revolutionaries. I don't care about these dumb main characters and their stupid decisions that put them on the wrong side of the revolution. The main guy really thought he was invincible and could just do whatever he wanted, and he found out the hard way the revolutionaries weren't playing around. Shout out to the guillotine for effectively ending the oppression of the working class!
