A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
3.0

Not as fun as other Dickens, which might have been due to my difficulty following the different connections and relationships. It's also a very small perspective of the french revolution, more about how the revolution affected people on an individual level, and about how the momentum of the revolution was driven by the individual (not an AN individual). Maybe that's why it was so bloody and horrible, because it was just thousands of individuals who wanted blood and their own revenge, instead of a more focused intent and idea.

Also I didn't find any of the characters as grabbing as other Dickens characters. I suppose it is generally less of a character focused novel, I've just found the characters to be such a draw in other Dickens.
