Clarissa: Or the History of a Young Lady by Samuel Richardson
5.0
Fifty three days ago I embarked on a journey in reading Clarissa that I thought would take me MUCH longer to complete. I have been eyeing this book for years as a challenge I knew I would one day attempt. Truth be told, reading Clarissa wasn’t much of a challenge at all. It’s a bit long, as in almost 1 million words, but it didn’t feel like it. This book is a brilliant all consuming masterpiece.
Clarissa is an absolutely amazing read. Would I recommend it? Yes and no. I say no because the Clarissa pissed me off a lot. I wanted to yell at some of the characters, How much can one say about a person? Apparently 1500 pages is the answer, and yes I am flexing right now. I would recommend this book because it’s easily a top 5 all time read. It’s an absolute masterpiece and I am so glad I read this book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
