A review by thetrickyfox
Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray

slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

Vanity Fair is the embodiment of the truth that just because something is considered a "classic" doesn't mean it's good. Every character is intensely unlikeable (except Dobbin). The plot is nonexistent. The writing goes off on so many uninteresting tangents it's a struggle to even get through. Also whoever said this was "funny" was lying to themselves and everyone else.
