monte05 's review for:

Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
3.0

I enjoyed this book thoroughly, but found it at times to be a bit dense for me. The use of rich language kept my interest throughout; the use of of rich language also had me looking up certain chapters to make sure I understood what I was reading. I would rate this book a 3.5/5. While I would not read this book again, I am glad to have finished the novel which has left me with many quotable and memorable passages.
