Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy
4.0
4.5 TESS DURBEYFIELD THEY WILL NEVER MAKE ME HATE YOU
not even plot-related, but i absolutely love hardy's descriptive writing, especially of nature. i could definitely feel a lot of the romanticist influences that people relate to hardy, but the characteristics of his era shined through as well. the explorations of what is considered "acceptable" sin based on gender, mindset and religion were so interesting and let's just say i was never bored with this book. there were so many twists and turns, and while entertaining at times the solemn moments were exactly as grave as they needed to be. essentially, the atmosphere atmosphered. did not expect the ending! but really liked it!
